(LBN552 and LBN1228 wide field on LRGB)
This is my first attempt using the new Sigma Art 135mm f1.8 lens and ASI294MM-C camera.
The field of view (FOV) was amazing, covering a wide angle of 5º
Although I require further practice to fully explore the capabilities of this new optic, I am delighted with the initial results of this test.
LBN 1228 is a region of gas and dust that is illuminated by the intense radiation from nearby young, hot stars.
It is also sometimes referred to as Sharpless 2-132 or Sh2-132.LBN 552, on the other hand, is also an emission nebula located in the same region of the sky as LBN 1228, and is sometimes referred to as Sharpless 2-138 or Sh2-138.
It is thought to be approximately 4,000 light-years away from Earth and is estimated to be around 30 light-years across.
Like LBN 1228, LBN 552 is a region of gas and dust that is illuminated by nearby young, hot stars.
t is also known for its intricate filaments of gas and dust, which create a beautiful and unique appearance.
