no serious!
Its the ghost of jupiter neb!
point, click, process(brightnes and contrast).

its actually got to be the brightest planetary nebular out there... ok so theres no detail, but even thru an ep i see no more than a bright blob.

I was just mucking around and thought 'hey its pretty darn bright, I'll give it a shot'.
the camera tho afocal is not hand held. I had the aperature as open as posible and iso on 400. I was suprised that anything came out.

its not the first DSO I've done tho. Ive done m42, omega cent, tuc47, and few few open clusters... I dont have tracking so my shots are often blured fuzzes of 1.2 sec exposure
