Kronberger 1 (Kn 1)
PN G040.9+08.3

Kronberger 1 (Kn 1, PN G040.9+08.3) Planetary Nebula in Ophiuchus. Taken over several nights
in July and Aug. 2013. Imaged with CCD Lab’s Q285M camera and a Celestron EdgeHD 9.25 at f10,
on a Losmandy G11/Gemini mount. The OIII and H alpha subframes were 20 and 30 minutes binned 1x1,
while the RGB subframes were 4 minutes binned 2x2 resulting in the following total exposures
(OIII+HA):(R+Ha):(G+OIII):(B+OIII) (min) = (480+530):(60+530):(60+480):(60+480). Captured with
Nebulosity, calibrated, sigma combined in Iris with other processing using PixInsight LE and
Photoshop CS. North is up.

OMG what inspired you to image this?! It looks absolutely amazing, a serene and tranquil vision of stardeath! The DSH planetaries need more attention!
