M37 / NGC 2099 w/V440 Aur / HD 39045
3.5 hours of total exposure using my new IDAS LPS-D1 filter on the Canon T5i. Took the best out of 85 frames (70 @ 180 seconds, ISO400). Processed using only PixInsight 1.8 (~4-5 hours effort) and then Pixelmator on OS X for just adding the final copyright text in the lower right.
I love how V440 Aur / HD 39045 the red variable (Vmax = 6.24m, Vmin = 6.37m), class M3III star came out at the bottom of this shot.
Last, but not least, I'm posting my full size images for your viewing pleasure. You'll find the links just below the image itself on Astrobin, but for this shot I'm including the link here as well: https://ronbokpublic.blob.core.windows. ... GC2099.jpg.
When you zoom into this one, at the full size of 5184 x 3240 (30.1MB), I think you'll see how clean and sharp the image really is.
Enjoy!!
