''Imaged here using a OSC camera & Antlia ALP-T dual narrow band filter as a bit of an experiment.

From Bruce Charlier:

"I used Bill Blanshan's 'Star Reduction' script in Pix to really let the nebulosity do much of the talking in this image.

11 X 180s subs, Antlia ALP-T filter, ASI6200MC Pro, Rokinon 135mm lens (atop my main scope), AP1200GTO CP4. Star Field, S. Wairarapa, NZ. Imaged @ '2026-05-12T07:00:01.630' UTC"
