Deep Sky Imaging Session - November 9, 2024

The sky this early evening is cloudy and very hazy. But at around 11:30pm, the sky suddenly started to open up and I quickly setup to image the IC410 Tadpole Nebula in the constellation of Auriga, this is a nice pair with IC405 Flaming Star Nebula but my telescope and camera would not allow me to image them together in one field so I had to image them separately to complete my imaging session. I use my ZWO ASI294MC PRO Astro Camera on Borg 76ED Refractor with 0.8x Reducer / Flattener and SVBony SV220 Duo Filter to capture this nebula. Total exposure of 120 minutes (60 x 120sec) was taken at -5 deg C. I also make a Hubble Pallette version in HOO for this nebula to bring out more clearly the 2 tadpoles on the image.
