Deep NGC7380 wizard

[Avdhoeven]

Took some shots of the Wizard Nebula (NGC 7380) last night. I had last photographed this object 11 (!) years ago when I had only been working on the hobby for 1 year. I thought it was time to see if this could be done better. These are 20 shots from 900s taken with my TMB92ss and QSI583ws with an Astrodon 5nm H-alpha filter.

To be honest, I was amazed at the amount of detail already showing up in the surrounding gas clouds in this area. Certainly this is an object that I will make OIII/SII shots from to be able to turn this into a full-fledged hubble palette when it is clear again soon.
