Description

Another in a run of broadband takes on favourite wide field narrowband targets. IC 1805 is one of my favourites, an amazing shape in the sky!

This is a 2 panel mosaic, as I wanted the Heart to have a bit of space, and also to capture the long "artery" to the top right.  I managed to grab a couple of hours on this prior to my main target for the evening getting up high enough. Limited time for 2 panels, but the RASA did its thing, and it's turned out OK. However,  I do need to have another go at my backspace / tilt, as some in some areas the stars are not quite right if you go in right up close.
