Iris Nebula under a 90 - 98% Full Moon

[Hals]

Thought I'd try my luck with the Iris Nebula during the recent very nearly full Moon.

148 x 60s Luminance, 30 x 60s RGB.

Whilst it is nowhere near what you could obtain for the same integration time (just under 4 hrs) with no Moon I was pleasantly surprised.

Just to show that you can still obtain reasonable images when really you shouldn't.

Nice image, and that's certainly very encouraging to hear!
