Description

Another project of mine; short integration

A combination of H-alpha from an SV220, and RGB from a ZWO UV-IR cut.

First time I tried a script for Continuum subtraction, and it seems it worked good, but it needed some experimenting and classic Messierman-style ingenuity.

I also kinda messed up with deconvolution, on the stars; just a tad bit too sharp.

Overall, another favorite image of mine.
