Hi there everybody,
I'm pretty new to the forum. It's also my first time imaging The California Nebula. It is larger than my camera's field of view. I imaged over 2 nights and still think I didn't get enough data. Trust me the small image that I'm posting does not truly reflect the large image. Let me know what you think.
