The Cloud sculpting cluster and the NGC 6820 nebula

AstroDMx Capture was used to capture 2 hours 35 minutes worth of 5 minute exposures of The cloud Sculpting Cluster NGC 6823 and the nebula NGC 6820 using a William Optics 81 mm APO refractor fitted with an Altair Quadband filter and an Altair Hypercam 533C 14 bit OSC CMOS camera mounted on an AVX mount.
