this took four nights of stubborn determination to get it done.

fortunately the weather has been cooperative. The sulfur and oxygen were very faint and it would have probably been better to take 10 hours of each, but after 14.5 hours of data gathering I am calling this a wrap.

I used a Pentax Takkumar 150mm f/2.8 medium format lens stopped down to f/4 for the "telescope" and an FLI CM10XME image capture camera.

all exposures were 30 minutes each and there was a total of 29 such exposures used to make this image.
