    Are those the seven sisters?
    I’ve forgotten the name… of the constellation.
    Love your work 3! (3=nickname)

    What a great View of NGC281. You have caught great detail in the nebula. The colour of the Nebula shows well and I see you have had it Modified.
    Well Done

  • thanks andrew , yes the dslr is modded which helped alot to get the h.alpha data , its possible with an unmodded dslr though , objects near cass are really hard to get for me

    Beautiful! Cassiopeia (the queen) was one of the first constalations I learned to recognise when I was a child, you must have one great zoom on your camera to get these shots,love ’em,:o)) God bless,Mae
