Cometary Globule CG 12

Cometary Globule CG 12 and associated reflection nebula NGC5367 located in the constellation of Centaurus approximately 2,200 light years distant. Data captured from February to April this year comprising 25+ hours of exposures. A somewhat difficult object to process given that CG 12 is relatively faint. The 1.5 degree field of view for my set up makes for nice framing of this object.

Link to Astrobin post here.

Further details can be found in Astrobin post.

Comments and critique welcome.

Clear skies,
Rodney

Thanks all. I’m going to have to venture out now and capture the other Cometary Globules that are “imageable”

That's a great capture! How dark are your skies? I wonder if it's worth trying from suburban Canberra...

Thanks for the feedback.

Kevin, imaging faint nebula from suburban skies can be done but it will depend on the amount of local light pollution and how quickly the background sky glow will build up on each sub frame. By taking lots of shorter exposures it is possible to do this. This object does not lend itself to narrowband imaging so relying on multiple shorter subs would be the way to approach this. As for the framing of the object, I can see that your Sky Watcher refractor and ASI1600 camera gives a 2 degree field of view so would frame this object very nicely. Worth giving a try I would say.

Marc, Mark and Mike - thanks for the feedback. Let’s hope for clear skies to capture more data so we can produce more images

Not much wrong with that image Rodney. I like your composition, colour and detail. I have been meaning to return to this object for years and only just setting up a system again that might be capable of capturing the entire object like you have. Next year it should be on my imaging list. Thanks for the image and reminder.

Thanks for the feedback Paul. It will be great to see what you can do with this area. It is a fascinating target with lots going on.

Congratulations as well Paul for your success in the DMA awards.
