Description
Reprocess of my first attempt on the heart nebula, using Seti Astro Suite Pro.
This is my first attempt on IC 1805 aka The Heart Nebula.
I used the Optolong L-extreme filter with a DSLR (Nikon D5300) not a clipped in filter but a 2” in the M48 ring adapter.
The telescope used is the Skywatcher Evostar 80EDX from the new EDX series.
Mind that I do this with a very limited view, with very heavy light pollution, showing the potential of if you doing it the right way, from only a balcony you can actually get some nice results, also giving that in mind that I am a complete beginner in astrophotography, so definitely there is a lot to improve on!
