Cassiopeia was pretty high in the sky and thus made a good target early in the morning. I had never shot the Heart and Soul Nebulae before so why not try!
Like I said above I processed this 3 different ways, but in the end I was happy the result for just using photographic equipment and a light weight tracker.
I haven't seen pics of these nebulae before so it was fun to send this in. Someday I will have to try shooting these 2 nebulae separately at 600mm. More future projects.
Canon R full spectrum Sigma 150-600C@388mm 60sec f6.3 iso 25600
44 shots, 10 flat frames
Star Adventurer 2i for tracking
Affinity Photo 2 for stacking and processing, Starnet2 to separate stars
This was a challenging target to process. I actually processed it 3 different ways and this is the one I liked the most.
