New Image: Statue of Liberty 🗽

#1

Post by CaptainCook »

Hi All,
Here is my effort at NGC3576 aka the Statue of Liberty nebula.
The bad weather here continues to thwart any longer integration times but this is a bright enough target to get a reasonable photo after 6 hours.
Two hours each of S, H and O shown in Foraxx palette with Ha as luminance and 30 min of OSC stars added.
Askar103 apo, AM5, ASI533MM & MC.
Bortle 7 backyard.
Thanks for looking!
