| Description | A return to the Iris Nebula using my Askar V and 2600 camera. Main goal was to capture the dust/dark nebula context which you can see in the gallery. Bonus was using Sharpcap's new color calibration feature that allows a more faithful color rendition of the blue/purple "petals" of the iris flower. |
