Description

This is my first attemt to catch the Wizard nebula in Cepheus. The weather wasn't good, high clouds and a disturbing moon permanently attacked my efforts. This object seems to need really dark sky and narrowband imaging, I couldn´'t provide both of them. But I planned to get it and I liked to show this nice 3D structure. This image was integrated around 90 minutes with a normal LPR filter (Chroma LoGlow) and the ASI533. I am satisfied for the first, but will set this target on a later-to-do plan!
