Sh 2-171 & NGC 7822

[winfij]

Hi all,

Although I captured the data for this shot back on October the 25th, I only finished off the processing to get it ready for my web site tonight.

Equipment details :

ART11002 through Pentax SDHF-75, unguided

Exposure details :

Ha = 14 x 300s (70 mins) binned 2x2

Notes:

This is a somewhat uncommonly imaged nebular pairing - the two just fitting into the field of view of my widefield scope nicely.

Sh 2-171 is the bright nebula at the bottom of the frame, with the dimmer NGC 7822 arching above it.

On the right hand edge of NGC 7822 the open cluster NGC 7762 can be seen with a size of 14 arcmins.

Hope you enjoy it.

Cheers,

HI John,

Cracking Image and lovely processing

I have done this myself. It's also listed as Cederblad 14 I think. You have got a very clean image and a FOV that fits the object like a glove!
