Hi all , Here's my first attempt at the Bug Planetary Nebula NGC 6302. I have found it a challenge to process as the core was initially blown out however I have managed to reveal some parts of the 2 half domes that face outwards from the central star. i also made a big mistake that reveals a possible advantage with additional stars to the field maybe I can push the iso a bit
. After shooting the ring I did bias frames at 25600 ISO but forgot to switch it back to 1600 . So when I discovered the error I thought i would give stacking a go anyway. I never thought this would be a result AT ALL ! Stacked in sequator as the DSS final looked real bad. 379 frames total at 3.2 sec of which 152 were though the Astronomic UHC filter. ISO25600
tota integration 20.2 min with 20" F5 Dob .
