A portion of the enormous Carina Nebula imaged remotely with a large (2938mm, 17" reflector) telescope and full frame astro camera in Chile provided by Gregturgeon_astro. The data was imaged in LRGB and processed by myself in Pixinsight, Capture, Affinity and Photoshop.
This is the largest viewable nebula from our planet, 4 times the size of the Great Orion nebula in North America.

Very cool, thanks for the description and specifications, Dan. Are you saying that it is possible to get some image files provided by large telescopes? If so, that sounds like a great opportunity for you.
