What is the best way to hide something? Some say you should hide it in front of our eyes --where we overlook because we think we have already seen everything. That's how I felt when I saw
@Bray Falls picture of this region. I strongly suggest
checking it out if you haven't already.
With RedCat 51 and 2600MM, I have quite a wide field in this region. But is it long enough to show the details? Is it wide enough to reveal what is hidden around?
I hoped to find answers to these questions. I could take more exposure, but the limited time did not allow for more for this season. Yet, after many failed processing attempts due to every target requiring different treatment, I finally ended up with this picturesque. Here are some close-up views.
The Lagoon Nebula (Messier 8)
This was this field's surprise to me. I was not aware of
Sh2-34, but turned out beautifully.
And the
Chinese Dragon Nebula
The Trifid Nebula (Messier 20) with
Webb's Cross (Messier 21) Open Cluster
And of course, the faintest amongst all,
SNR G007.5-01.7 which I could amplify more --but I prefer to have a naturalistic difference between objects. It is a very faint target and so it should look like one, but just to make it pop-up. Of course, this is merely a personal preference.
And even more that I leave for the keen eyes.
