Pipe Nebula

[nebulosity. (Jo)]

I took this picture a few weeks ago and just finished processing it, I think it turned out alright?

It is so far my deepest image, 3 hours.

It has around 150x2min exposures, ISO 800.

With Panasonic GX1 and 85mm lens at F4.

unguided on home built horseshoe mount.

Thanks for looking

Nice pipe! It's a glorious region of the sky.
Btw, if you turn it 180 degs it's a kiwi bird

Nice work Jo great image. Go the ATM horse shoe mount. I enjoy maging through the zenith without doing a meridian flip. I haven't got to 3 hours of exposure yet but I'm planning to.
