Description:
Over seven nights in August and September 2025 I collected data for my most in-depth astrophoto yet. LBN 437 is a molectular cloud in Lacerta that sits in front of a beautiful field of hydrogen alpha cataloged as Sh2-126. I compiled dual narrowband data from my Bortle 6 backyard over five nights and two nights of broadband data from Cherry Springs State Park for a total of almost 31 hours of integration time. The image was calibrated, stacked, and processed in PixInsight.
