NGC 7822 - A surprisingly Difficult Target

[Catanonia]

I was quite surprised at how difficult this target NGC 7822 was compared to the surrounding areas. It is quite faint which was a surprise. Even the RASA was struggling to get "loads" of data out of this, so I went for 5min subs to try and get as much as I could.

Skirting with the clouds in a Bortle 6 backyard, I managed to grab 3 hours with the RASA8 and ZWO 2600 Pro MC in 5 min subs.

Hard to process as well, I think I was getting some glare / vignette. I think this is my over sized dew shield I have on the RASA

Also the framing was off, not quite getting the large blue gas ring on the outside of the image (a little of it can be seen top left)

Anyways, hope you like it.
