‘Wizard Nebula’, Sh2-142 in Cepheus
Astro-modded EOS 600D,12” Newtonian telescope
70 x 4-minute ISO 1600 auto-guided exposures taken over 3 nights in 2023 and 2024.
Frames stacked in Deep Sky Stacker software. Result post-processed to increase contrast, reduce noise, adjust overall colour balance and reduce colour gradients caused by light pollution.
I also used Starnet++ to temporarily remove the stars during processing (as otherwise they dominate after stretching the contrast).
