Sh2-124 [ in Cygnus - where else :>) ]

I had 5 sessions on this target in early July. The skies allowed imaging between the 7th and the 13th. This image is captured with the Meade 127mm @ 1144mm. I am still learning to work with this recently acquired scope and the processing necessary to maximize its images. I used the Optolong L-enhance and L-ultimate during the sessions. Although I shot 88 subs at 600 seconds and 25 subs at 300 seconds for about 16 hours, I was selective and kept 12.5 hours of integration.

One imager called this the "Almost Nothing Nebula" - rarely imaged and seldom written about. So, there it is! Enjoy.

This is a very cool one Andy. I had to look at my archives, I haven't done this one yet. The closest I have gotten is SH2-129.

Very nice work!
