NGC 2023 and neighborhood

[bulrichl]

NGC 2023 and neighborhood (IC 431, IC 432, NGC 2024, IC 435, IC 434 and B 33) is presumably one of the most frequently captured regions of the sky - and for me one of the most beautiful ones as well.

very nice, do you have to book the imaging site or can you just take your equipment anytime and image?

I am imaging from my terrace. I don't have an observatory building, for the most part of the year tripod and mount stay outside.
