Description

First (decent) light of the new AZ EQ6!

The subject is lovely but didn't get enough subs in SII and OIII, didn't take flats, plus the mount moved a lot in the middle of the session (wind?) and I had to crop more than I would have liked.

Ha was very strong and could enhance it a lot during post-processing.

Didn't get too fancy with the color combination, a simple HSO (R=Ha, G=SII, B=OIII) with Ha used as L in LRGB to give more detail, nevertheless this is my preferred target so far!
