Description

The data for this image are from Wei Hao Wang's image repository (https://www.astrobin.com/mjhcd5/) and consisted of 2.3 hours of Nikon D800 images.  The telescope was an Askar FRA600 f5.6, fl600mm) located in Taiwan.   The images from this camera are very large, and the image shown here is about 70% of the original size.  The downloaded images were calibrated with the provided bias, flats, and darks using WBPP, which included drizzle integration (x1).  Processing was done using Pixinsight. Color calibration used SPCC with only minor adjusts in Photoshop.   GraXpert AI was used to remove gradients.  I struggled with the Ha color in this image, but it is what it is from SPCC.
