NGC 2736 Pencil nebula

Managed to get around 4 hours Sunday night and 4 hours Monday night on NGC 2736 . Seeing conditions were near perfect . I could not decide which final image was better or was more accurate of what it should look like More red or less red . Still quite happy with how this one turned out

80 x 300sec lights
80 x 300 darks
Optilong l enhance
Bortle 5

Stacked in DSS and a quick tidy up with gimp

Thanks

Nicely done. I like the wider field and framing of number three along with the subtle nebula picked up around the edges. With a little curves adjustment you can increase the contrast to enhance the nebula and knock back the sky background ever so slightly.
