Description

Finally got some clear skies so I could finish up my California Nebula. Turned out pretty good! I'm digging the HaRGB pictures... They're a bit red, but the detail is phenomenal.

The California Nebula is an emission nebula located in the constellation Perseus. Difficult to see visually due to its low surface brightness, it's an excellent photographic object due to its propensity for ionized gas. It's located roughly 1,000-ly away from us.
