Eskimo Nebula | NGC 2392

[tired widget]

Seeing was above average and the sky was finally clear. Sticking with my obsession with planetary nebula, heres one of my favorites, the Clown Face Nebula or the Eskimo Nebula.

NGC 2392 or Eskimo Nebula:
Deriving its name from its nebulous structure, resembling a face surrounded by a parka hood. This nebula is around 10,000 years old and is located in the constellation Gemini. The central star is very hot, reaching a scorching temperature of 50,000 degrees Celsius.

Incredible

Actually quite good for the equipment

the colors are good too I think, a lot of Eskimo Nebula images I've seen are very over-processed and have too much saturation, but this looks very controlled and modest.

yeah it's a good telescope, just usually people don't use Dob mounts for AstroPhotography

[noble forge]

I do !!!

it's common

we cook as much as EQ mounts

[unique violet]

I do as well, granted my equipment is not nearly as good as OP's and I'm sure yours as well

Saturation looks good very natural but the colors seem a bit cold if you're trying to go full natural, here's my try with 250mm newtonian, what color calibration did you do ?

Its not exactly natural, i removed the green noise using Siril which turned it more red than anything which is why i raised the blue channel to counter that. I would've kept the green but my fav colors blue so i like the results
