Description

The Perseus Double Cluster (h and χ Persei) is a beautiful object, viewed with the naked eye, through a telescope or captured with a camera. I tried to take a fresh view on it with not only recording RGB data, but H-Alpha data as well, showing the faint nebulosity around both clusters. Hope you like it!
