James Carroll in Conway, Arkansas, captured this deep-sky image on September 14, 2022, and wrote: "This is LDN1121, a part of the larger Elephant Trunk Nebula. This is the most complex image I have attempted to take yet. This is a blend of 2 images. I have always loved the depth in narrow-band deep sky images. These images show the complexity of our own Milky Way. To think each bright dot represents a star the same size or bigger than our own sun is awe-inspiring. This image is a total of 28 hours and 45 minutes worth of exposures captured over the entire month of August, and into September, completed on September 13th and processed on the 14th. Total time making this image was over 35 hours." Impressive. Thank you, James!
