WR134 Ring Nebula

Just finished this shot of WR134 Ring Nebula. I've been in awe of this object ever since I first saw it and wanted to shoot it since. This is a bicolour image with OIII exposed for 18 hours and Ha for 14 hours. Attached is a small version and here's a much larger version:

I hope you guys like it!

That is a fantastic image.

Can you give a few more details, where are you? Gear used? Where is this object?

Greg.

Mighty_oz, the MX isn't totally fixed yet... but it is working well enough. No alarms the past week - I haven't replaced any part yet because I want the error to come up again before I do so I know it's fixed for sure. Just taking advantage of clear skies with fingers crossed right now.

Thank you, Larry!

Greg, this is the WR134 Ring Nebula - it's very near NGC6888. I saw a photo of this on CN a year ago and really wanted to shoot it since.

Gear:
Takahashi FSQ-85EDX on a Paramount MX with a SBIG ST8300M with Astrodon 3nm filters.

And I'm located in Pakistan. Oh and thank you!

WhiteRabbit - he used O3 for 18 hours(!) and H-a for 14 hours(!).

NilRecurring - awesome image! I've never seen the "ring" looking so detailed.

Best,
Cam
