My first time trying to shoot the Horse Head nebula! I have a stock Sony a6000, which cuts out most of the hydrogen red signal, but thankfully enough got through to at least make this a solid attempt.

The data is about 45 minutes worth of 30 second exposures out of my Sony and a Ttartisan 500mm f6.3 lens, on a star tracker.

Due to the very limited total integration time and the stock camera I had to stretch pretty far while fending off artifacts here and there.

Overall I’ll take it, will revisit in the future.

Feedback appreciated!
