Comments

Second shot with the new widefield setup and it turned out better than expected ! I managed to get 7h30 of exposure on the heart nebula and the result is very satisfying and allowed me to reduce a lot the noise in the picture. The features of the nebulas are so sharp and the color is so vibrant.
