Description

I captured 2h 50m of Ha and 2h of OIII data over January 5 and January 11, 2019 using my ZWO ASI178MM-Cool and optimized ZWO Ha, OIII filters. Shot with a Canon 200mm f2.8L lens stopped to f4. Guided on a Celestron AVX mount.

Data was colorized in Photoshop after stacking in DSS and processing each channel separately. Not quite a Hubble palette, not quite an RGB. Not sure what I did, but it looked good to me. Seeing was average to below average each night but I couldn't pass up the clear skies!
