SH2-221 A very dim object

[Comet Hunter]

Difficalt to capture and process
over 2 nights I ended up with 12.5 hrs of/300 sec light frames Scope was at a 335 fl. 2600mc pro and the antila ALP-T 5 nm filter.

Fascinating shapes and colors.

That's a very difficult one Ed, and you did a great job with this!

 

[Jameel Hyder]

With 12.5 hours of capture you could probably count the photons. Nice work.

Wow, looks way better than the NASA images if it's the same comet that was in the news about a week ago.

OK Ed, now THAT is cool! I am not familiar with this target, it looks very interesting. It appears to frame up very nicely in that focal length. You have done a great job on this one!
