Description

IC 1396, the elephant trunk nebula is located in a very star-busy region of the Norther Skies. This month is the probably best time of the year to focus on this target. My equipment was my RASA11 with an ASI2600MC plus an Astronomik OHC filter. One night was enough to get this result as the nebula is quite bright and the night was perfectly clear.
I processed the result in the Hubble palette manner which to my liking is more pleasing than the original colors resulting from the OHC filter.
