manoss27 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Hi,Difficult target wtih a complex dark nebula and low light reflections. I tried to give a soft natural looking without exaggeration on color and contrast.S 155, also known as the Cave Nebula, Sh2-155 or Caldwell 9, is a dim and very diffuse bright nebula within a larger nebula complex containing emission, reflection, and dark nebulosity. It is located in the constellation Cepheus.Visually it is a difficult object, but with adequate exposure, makes a striking image. The nebula gets its name Cave Nebula from the dark lane at the eastern side abutting the brightest curve of emission nebulosity which gives the appearance of a deep cave when seen through a telescope visually.Takahashi FSQ-106ED with Camera Atik 383L+. Guiding with Atik OAG & Lodestar Autoguider.Capture details: LUM 50X600sec Bin 1x1 at -15c.RGB 12X600sec each filter Bin 1x1 at -15c. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
