The Elephant Trunk Nebula with the Dwarf 3 telescope.
This is a slightly cropped image of the Elephant Trunk Nebula. Total integration was 3.1 hours. The image was stacked and stars were fixed in Stellar Studio. I then imported the FIT file into Siril, performed photometric calibration, removed the stars, stretched the image, and saved as a TIFF file. I tweaked the TIFF in Affinity 2 and saved as a PNG.
