Description

Similarly to my Pleiades image, this was just a little side project to close the gap between my next main target. Furthermore, it was also the perfect target to test out my new filters. I do have to say, my first impression of the antlia SHO filters is extremely positive. I couldn't notice any halos on this image, and the contrast is stunning for just 3.25 hrs of HOO. I had almost no gradients in the final stack despite living in a Bortle 6 location. Truely remarkable. I'm exited to see what is achievable with these filters on future projects.
