Taken from my backyard this week over 2 nights (6.4 hours total) using a DSLR and L-eNhance filter. I couldn’t get enough of the OIII around the bean to appear as well as I thought I could but I think it still looks pretty good.
Equipment used:
* Astro-Tech AT60ED with the 0.8x Reducer/Flattener on Advanced VX Mount
* Mount controlled via Astroberry
* Canon T2i @ ISO 1600 (H-alpha modded)
* clip-in Optolong L-eNhance filter
* Svbony 60mm guide scope with ZWO ASI120MM-Mini guide cam
* 96×240 sec lights
* 22 darks
* 35 bias
* 40 flats
* Stacked in AstroPixelProcess and did some auto stretches on it, light pollution removal, and star color calibration.
* Post-Processed in Photoshop: Levels adjustment to make background a bit darker and Topaz DeNoise for noise reduction.

That’s incredible!
Thanks for the gold, anonymous person. Fun fact: Gold is thought to have been created in neutron star mashups. Before this hypothesis, scientists thought they were created in supernovae.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing! Love it!
Absolutely mesmerizing!
Amazing shot! I would love to do astrophotography but I’m a broke university student.
