Description

The Prawn nebula is a very interesting subject for me. I took this image in June 2014. It is an emission nebula located around 6000 light-years away and located in the constellation of Scorpius. I found it to be relatively easy to capture but the processing was a challenge to do in the Hubble palette which I will post in a while. This image was processed by blending Ha & Sii to produce the red, Ha, Sii & Oiii to produce the green and Oiii just for the blue.
