Description

First time on this interesting target. Sh2-114 Flying Dragon Nebula.

It is very very relatively dim and through the bi-narrowband filter with more than 18 hours of integration time under Bortle 7 sky, it was very challenging to bring out some details from the dragon. I used the free software StarNet to take out all the stars before stretching the picture again to bring out more luminance and colors and then reapply to the stretched image before further adjustments.

Equipment: ASI294MC-Pro, STC Duo NB filter, 157x420s (18.3 hours), 350gain, Bortle 7 sky.
