I had wanted to capture this nebula for a long time and only recently succeeded. Due to its low altitude above the horizon in our area—only 20 degrees—the imaging kept being postponed. While the HaOiii data turned out more or less okay, the stars came out poorly. I accumulated signal over three nights during nautical twilight. In any case, I'm satisfied).
