Thank you for sharing your photos - this is exactly what this project is all about! :-)
The Squid Nebula (Ou4) and the Bat Nebula (Sh2-129) in the constellation Cepheus.
The object is very faint but beautiful and interesting. This version has a golden-gray tone; there are also versions with white and just bicolor, but a poll in the group showed that most people prefer this one.
Captured 50 km from Rostov-on-Don over 9 nights. Processed in PixInsight and Photoshop, without AI plugins.
P.S. The stars were also captured with the Askar, just through a mask — I like it better this way.

To be honest, I wasn't planning to shoot it at all — it wasn't even on my shooting list. I was thinking of shooting Leo, but someone showed me the Squid, and it fit my schedule better since it rose to the required altitude earlier.
