Description

I've imaged NGC2359 in January 2022, January 2023 and January 2024.  Each year I never got enough exposure time in to achieve the deep integration I wanted.  This is the result of integrating all of the subs from those 3 years.

It's quite a Frankenstein composition - 2022 was shot with a Celestron C8 Schmidt-Cassegrain at 1237 mm and OSC camera, while 2023 and 2024 were narrowband exposures using my 840mm refractor.
