My latest project consuming many nights with the 160EDF refractor, QSI683, 1600 mount, chasing down this beautiful object. Some 28 hours of exposure, 10 minute and 20 minute subs. Core detail was taken with 24 x 10 minute subs. Outer detail taken with gobs of 20 minute subs.

Wow, that is a lot of exposure. The image is quite nice. smile Looks like a little tilt in the camera though.
