Balrog Nebula NGC1333

[Stub Mandrel]

I don't think my skies are anywhere near dark enough to do justice to this target. 2016 65@2 minute subs, 2019 13@5 minute subs. The combined data brought out more background. Not an ideal target for the 130P-DS.

You need real dark skies for this one....hats of to you for even thinking about doing it. The colour is great and you can see it....nice work

As Peter noted, this really is a difficult target that benefits from a dark site and plenty of long subs.  Saying that you have the blue reflection nebula and you can just see the beginnings of the dark obscuring dust at the centre of the star forming regions.  An achievement in itself, well done.

Yep, I definitely need to keep it up my sleeve for a dark site.
