Stellar Shot of the Week: September 18, 2020
"The Heart Nebula in SHO" (IC 1805) - by Sean Molony
Congratulations to Sean Molony for taking this week's Stellar Shot! Sean took this image with his Stellarvue SV130T and a QSI683WSG-8, running on top of a Losmandy G11. Sean's SHO processing is always fantastic, and he achieves all of his results from the hot-and-humid skies of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Getting such a reliable pallet from narrowband work (as Sean always does) is incredibly impressive, as are the details he's able to squeeze out of from such a wide variety of scopes and cameras. Check out the rest of Sean's portfolio on Astrobin under the username of "redstickastro", or through his Instagram page of the same name, @redstickastro.
