Supernova 2017eaw August 21, 2017

Supernova 2017eaw, discovered on May 14, 2017 by Patrick Wiggins in the aptly named "FireWorks Galaxy", NGC 6946. With 10 supernovas in the last century, it has been quite active in producing supernovas. Months later, near the end of August, the supernova is still quite bright. Revisited it on the nights of August 18-21 to capture this image of it with the RC10 and the Atik 314l+ camera.
