Unguided 42 3.5 min lights Canon 5D MKII 200mm f/5.6 iso800 - no filters. Outer suburban sky.

It lacks data in the nebula, but this could be colour calibration. Idea was to pick out the detail and contrast star colour and regions.

Higher res newer version here

Thanks for looking

Despite your light pollution, it's still a very good image Rowland. Presentation is good. I like it.

Thanks Darrin. That is version number 10+. It is still a bit flat. I really needs to pop.

What mount was used?
It always amazes me what the night sky really would look like were we able to see all of the photons that reach our eyes. Thanks so much for capturing this.

Hi Peter. Thanks, it's an oldish Takahashi EM200B - the one with the +ve ground.
