IC 5146

[emyliano2000]

A few weeks ago I went on a dark skies trip to take some photos of the night sky.

I didn't have enough time to finish my plan but I managed to capture some more data on the Cocoon nebula too.

I posted the result that I got from my back garden a while ago but the 6x3 minutes from the bortle 4 location changed the final result so much and this is the result.

Equipment used:
Eq3 Pro
TS65 quadruplet f6.5 imaging telescope
ZWO ASI294MC PRO cooled at -15°C
Altair 2" TriBand filter, 2" IDAS LPS-D1
Qhy5 guide camera
9x50 finder-guider

The image is the result of 88x300sec Gain 200 Offset 10 exposures with the Tri-Band filter shot in my back garden on the outskirts of London and 6x180sec, same gain and offset, shot from a bortle 4 location.
