Description

The Ghost of Cassiopeia in Ha mapped to red and Oii blue with a synthetic green channel 

Data was captured whilst on holiday in Spain in late September 22 

Only got one pic to process from Spain left which is the Cocoon nebula ... 

Ha 126 x 300s = 10hrs 30 mins
Oiii 86 x 300s = 7 hrs 10 mins 
= 17 hrs 40 mins 

Hardly any Oiii signal even after 7 hrs in Bortle 4 conditions 

As usual the with this target main processing problem was the huge halos and sensor reflections caused by the very bright gamma cass star combined with the ZWO 7nm filters

Have got rid of the halos but am not happy with how the star looks but ... hey ho
