This is an animation of the inverse novae R Coronae Borealis.
I first imaged this with the Sky 90 array and was highly disappointed that it was still around mag 15 in August 2013.
It had been around the minimum for years and I was expecting it to be quite a bit brighter.
I then imaged this region with a 200mm lens in May 2015, not giving R Coronae Borealis a second thought.
I was amazed when I took a closer look that RCrB had brightened up considerably after so many years in the doldrums.
