Description

The picture was partly taken on my first holiday with telescope in my luggage. I took the RGB pictures in two nights in South Tyrol. The hotel even had its own columns and domes for telescopes, a dream. From the balcony at home, I took the Ha information with the dual-narrowband filter.
The image processing was then done in PixInsight. First separately for the RGB and Ha information, which was then combined into a HaRGB image after the continuum subtraction.
