Description

Imaged with Paul Kummer.

We were pleased with this result. An earlier version in HaLRGB from a Tak FSQ was not so deep other than in Ha. This gave a rendition in which the proportion of gas to dust was exaggerated in favour of the gas. Here, we see more of the dust. These data also appear in a widefield composite where they are blended into a Samyang 135 image. That will be next to this image on my home page.
