The Pacman Nebula

I spent two nights collecting light for this image. Because I take my captures out-of-app to edit, they don’t show my settings or time spent, so I captured 1141 45-second exposures, which is around 14 hrs and 15 minutes. I’m not too sure how I feel about my final edit, but I think it does the nebula justice. I want to reshoot because the seeing and transparency conditions have been poor to say the least for about a week even though the sky was “clear”-ish. Anyway, I’m having a ton of fun shooting out there, and can’t wait for the night skies to open up in a week when the showers stop. (Crossing my fingers) Good shooting!
