Hydrogen alpha on full moon nights


Recommended Posts

Full moon nights are not bad for imaging. This time I decided to try a part of the sky that a friend shot with his setup in Ha and Oiii.

I don't own a mono camera so I have to do it with my OSC. Quite pleased with the result so here it is.

Widefield of a busy region of the milky way.
