Description

I have used the past clear nights to photograph this beautiful PN.
After the first 300 seconds of picture with the red filter, I thought what are you doing here. There was nothing to see except stars.

For quick verification, I switched to Ha and you could guess PuWe 1 after 600 seconds.
I have collected the OIII data over several moonless nights.

The project was worth it in my eye... maybe you like it too.
