Bubble in Ha

Hi all. Since the moon was super bright I decided to collect a little Ha data with the new setup. Seeing was pretty bad again... which is normal for winter in Utah. It was good to get a little more imaging time with the scope and camera. I like the sensitivity of the KAF3200XME chip for narrowband imaging.

Nice Tyler,

Despite the poor seeing this came out looking good!

You picked up a lot of nebulosity in the outer areas.
