Description

When I imaged this target I also took many hours of SHO and only intended to use this RGB data for stars. But I like the RGB composition. SHO version coming. I would normally take much more RGB.

NGC 6820 is a small reflection nebula near the open cluster NGC 6823 in Vulpecula. The reflection nebula and cluster are embedded in a large faint emission nebula called Sh 2-86. The whole area of nebulosity is often referred to as NGC 6820.
