[AstroFest] Long live the dusty neb!

Folks,

'Tis the season...for imaging around Coronae Australis...but this one sans the influence of the green monster

Most of these subs were taken on the first night of AstroFest, but then I realised that with the dropping temperature I'd shifted out of focus so then I took some additional subs the next night.

Composed of 27x 5m subs with my SW Esprit 100 and Canon 6D, processed with PixInsight, and then butchered down to 200kb so I included a crop around the reflection nebulae and glob.

Later in the week I took some wider subs with just my Canon and that dark dust lane heading up the frame extends for quite a distance

Cheers,
Dunk
