Description

This started out as a fairly deep image of the Soul Nebula.  Given the optimal conditions over the course of 4 nights I decided to try my hand at a mosaic.  It was my first one and won't be my last.  As I suspected these are a LOT of fun.   And to have this resolution over such a large patch of sky is enough to make you want to print it and print it big.  As I was pixel peeping during post processing I ran across what appeared to be a small planetary nebula.  It is indeed  an obscure one at that.  PN-G 132.8+02.0 is marked in a small red circle at the bottom of the final version.  I hope to image that at some future date with a much longer focal length.  Meanwhile, I've included a close crop of this object in the revision history as well.  Based on an advanced search this appears to be a "debut object" here on Astrobin.

Data acquired 11/18, 11/20, 11/21, and 11/22 in my backyard near Cincinnati, OH.
