Close up on the heart nebula.
Taken with specific astrophotography gear.
The total exposure time of this image is 15 hours. Taken over a few nights. It’s amazing what you can capture from your own backyard.
For the people that don’t know, you take long exposure images and combine those individual images with astrophotography software to reach the total exposure time.
The nebula is a combination of hydrogen, oxygen and sulphur.
Incredible!
Thanks!
