Crescent Nebula


Would've posted this earlier, but wanted to shoot the OIII layer to pick up some of the reflection nebula surrounding the Crescent. I'll try again next Fall. For a larger version of this image, click here.

This is an HaLRGB image. I used my Apogee U16M camera with Astrodon Gen2 LRGB and 5nm Ha filters all attached to an Astro-Physics 160 telescope on my Takahashi NJP Temma 2 mount.
