Hi all,

This Milky Way nebula near Sadr was imaged by Gilles Cohen in southern France using a 155EDF operating at F5.3, STL11K camera and H-a filter. A series of 15 minute exposures were added together for a total of approximately 3.5 hours. Seeing was 1.1 pixel FWHM. This image is a 1/4 size from the original.
