hello everyone,
I feel encouraged to present this image - hopefully as a candiadate for NASA APOD.
It took me more than a month to acquire the essential data on the object, as weather is no reliable partner here at my place.
in a bit more than 4 nights conditions were useful to image that PN:
seeing quality was variable and so was transparency, but in the end 11.3 hours of reasonable data was processed to this result.
please find all images on my website - also the data on the image is there.
this is just a downscaleda small preview FYI:
