Description

NGC 7129 or the commonly called "Rose Bud Nebula" is a mostly reflection nebula located in Cepheus.  However, it does have some Ha in the surrounding area as well as within the rose bud itself.  I used the Ha to bring out the background emission as well as some of the squiggly bits around the rose.  I like the varied color pallet and the dust clouds.

Description: I don't know what I was thinking with the original image. It was way over processed, and I was trying to bring out information that I hadn't earned. This one is probably still over processed for the information collected, but will hold me over until I can go back and gather more data next year.
