Another new image captured with this “not so much expensive” setup: Canon 200mm, Openastrotracker and ASI1600.It’s not easy to operate this mount on a remote site, but they are so fast preparing new versions and they are improving the software a lot. The community is so active and the drivers are evolving so fast.

At the end is a long exposure of 8 hours using a 2.8 aperture. Not an easy process due this nebulae is more dark and sutil than others tha I know.

The dark nebula Barnard 22 and the tiny flame-shaped reflection nebula IC 2087 are both part of the Taurus Molecular Cloud, which in turn contains many complex organic compounds in its extensive dusty nebula.
