Hi All, this was taken by Tom O'Donoghue and myself using 3 Tak FSQ106 scopes and full frame CCD cameras, which was an unusual luxury! (Tom brought his home-based one along for a week to join our regular dual rig.) This is slightly extended to the west compared with the version posted elsewhere. We are taking it west and north to embrace the Soul Nebula for which I already have data, so it is fairly quick to fill in the starfields. The left hand side had 31 hours in order to pull out the incredibly faint vdb14 and 15 reflection nebulae. The right hand third just had 8 hours. HaLRGB for the left, HaRGB for the right.


 


Stock 23 is the tight little open cluster upper middle and Sharpless 202 is the large, faint emission nebula.
