NGC 281 Pacman Nebula

Managed to get some clear skies last night and pointed the DWARF 3 at the Pacman Nebula. You can clearly see the dark dust lanes cutting through the glowing gas that give the nebula its name.

Great image! I’m also a Dwarf 3 owner and shot the Pacman with the Duo-Band filter which produced the typical pinkish colouration. I much prefer your result. Which filter did you use?

I had a dew sheild fitted on the dwarf3. I set it manually at Shutter 15, Gain 60, using VIS. Just altered the colour in Apple Photos. Original being uploaded. Thanks for the comment
