NGC6357
 This beautiful narrow-band image of the NGC6357 nebula is the first-light image taken with the Telescopi Italiani TC45 telescope and C3-61000 PRO camera.

The CielAustral group just finished the installation of the 45 cm Telescopi Italiani TI45 astrograph in Chile. The telescope is equipped with C6-61000 PRO camera. And here is the first-light image, captured with this setup:

The TI45 telescope operated at f/4 configuration (focal length 1,800 mm). The image is captured through narrow-band Hα, OIII, and SII filters with exposure time in each filter almost 24 hours. The resulting exposure time is 71 hours.
