Deep Sky Imaging Session - February 12, 2026

The sky this evening is partly clear but there are some thin haze noticeable in the sky but I proceeded to image NGC2264 , the Christmas Tree Nebula or Fox Fur Nebula which also contain the small Cone Nebula in this nebula complex. Also included in this complex is the Philippine Nebula. a dark nebula inside this complex. I use my trusty Dwarf 3 Smart Scope at Astro Mode with Duo Filter at EQ Mode. Stack of 180 images at 30 sec (1h 45m) at Gain 60 was used to capture this nebula.
