First image in 4 months - The Proboscis of an Proboscidea

[powerlord]

Due to abysmal weather and a total lack of interest (hoping it will come back after building a pigging observatory!) I last images end of January. But finally had a clear night monday night in Suffolk, so shot this and the Iris Nebula (will edit and post that later).

IC1396 is one I've shot tons of times before, so a bit of a different framing - with my Stellamira 90ED and asi2600 with  L-ultimate. And tried to do something a bit different from usual with the editing in Affinity to bring out depth of the nebula. It's just a single night of data - 5 min subs. 4 hours worth of em.

Quite a nice colour rendition. When I did it with my SY135 I found a certain lack of saturation (maybe I didn't do it justice). Yours is nicely done.

Beautiful image!

Really good, it does have a 3D look about it.

Really nice image, nice colours too. Glad you finally got around to imaging this year after your previous post 👍

Wow, it's got some nice depth / a 3D feel to it. I feel like I'm about to fly through it. Warp speed, Mr Spock!

It's hard to see what you might find to reproach in this image.
