EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Running Chicken Nebula (IC2944). Taken by James Yu, this image captures the first experience of using the ASI 2600MM Mono camera and Optolong 3nm SHO filters. The Running Chicken Nebula, also known as IC 2944, derives its name from a group of stars that remarkably resemble a running chicken. Can you spot it amidst the vast expanse of space? The attention to detail in this photograph is remarkable. Mounted on a Skywatcher HEQ5PRO (Belt modified), with an ASKAR 107PHQ telescope and a guide telescope of 50mm f/4, James was able to capture every intricate feature. Using an ASI 2600 MM main camera and an ASI 120MC guide camera, along with various other equipment including filters and filter wheel, he meticulously captured multiple exposures under different wavelengths. With post-processing techniques like Pixlnsight, StarXTerminator, NoiseXTerminator, BlurXTerminator, Photoshop, TK-Panel, and Astro-Panel applied to enhance the image's clarity and vibrancy. This stunning print serves as a testament to both James' skillful astrophotography technique and his dedication to capturing celestial wonders. It invites viewers into the awe-inspiring world beyond our Earthly confines.
