Messier 27: Dumbbell Nebula

10 June 2022

After years of shooting with an unmodified stock camera, I finally switched to a dedicated
cooled astro camera. As the moon was nearly full I did not want to choose a dim and
faint target but a nice bright one. So Messier 27 was a feasible choice.

The images were taken over two nights and processing the data was a pleasure
compared to processing nebula data from a stock camera. Now I am looking forward to
many more images from this camera.
