Description

Not too dim object but low on my horizon. Picture is taken only with Ha and OIII filters and stars colors are derived from a Ha, Ha x 0.2 + OIII x 0.8, OIII palette.

I can't stop seeing the head of a pigeon on the OIII signal. I promise it is not enhanced in any specific way, it just shows up.
