I love spider season!
The LMC has so many interesting and unique nebulas to target, and NGC 2070 never gets old. Here I've chosen to feature the lesser seen loop below 2070 and the cute little frog guy below.
This is the first tricolour narrowband hit out with the new TOA-35 reducer, and I must say I'm pleased with the performance of this frighteningly expensive piece of glass. The wide FOV and one stop speed gain from f7.7 to f5.3 is wonderful. Unfortunately, the wider fov shows up a tiny bit of residual tilt in the sensor, but a post lockdown trip beyond 10k’s to see Dr. Diego at Sidereal trading should sort that out once and for all!
This image is a bit short on S2 data, and there's no RGB stars yet, but I was bored during lockdown, so processed what I had so far - all shot under a full moon too- aah the joys of narrowband!
