of Barnard's Loop. 26 ten minute subs over two nights in January.
the sky was only 5/10 and transparency the same with some wind.
The H alpha clouds that are everywhere in
the Orion complex are just beginning to show in the background
but will require a separate layer
next year .... the sky is closed right now.. Acquired, warm pix
conversion, stacking and color balance
with Nebulosity 2.0.10... Curves, saturation, star color, noise
