NGC 5367 (CG 12 and others) is a reflection nebula located approximately 2050 light-years away in Centaurus. At declination -40, this is another object that is rarely imaged from the northern hemisphere. I imaged this one while it was between 13 and 17 degrees above the horizon.

Luminance – 12x600s – 120 minutes – binned 1x1
RGB – 8x300s – 40 minutes each – binned 2x2

240 minutes total exposure – 4 hours

Imaged January 29th and 30th, 2017 from Dark Sky New Mexico at Rancho Hidalgo (Animas, New Mexico) with a SBIG ST-8300M on an Astro-Tech AT90DT at f/6.7 603mm.
