Description

Taken in Animas, New Mexico at https://www.valleyvistagetaway.com
I have to give kudos to our hosts John and Cathy Adler for our stay at their wonderful cottage and roll off observatory.
Bortle 1 - What more could you ask for?

Utilizing the Antlia gold narrow band filter with my Takahashi FSQ-106.
Only 18 subs @ 1200 seconds allowed me to really bring capture the beautiful nebulosity and detail.

Utilized Pixinsight for the entire workflow.
I have a hard time choosing between the starless version or the star version so I will let you choose.
Enjoy.
Vic
