Hi

OR...

Known as IC63. The Nebula is a Reflective & Emission Nebula situated in the constellation of Cassiopeiae & quite faint. The top bright star is called Gamma Cas, which helps to illuminate the blue reflection portion of the Nebulosity. I did try doing this using the CCD, but was not happy with the FOV. Maybe a bigger CCD or the cheaper alternative would be a scope with a shorter focal length.

Taken with the MN190 & Canon 1100D, 12x 5mins Subs, Flats & Darks applied @ ISO800.

With last nights 90mins of Data added & still more to add, when I get another clear night....
