Description

Taken with a full moon and my first attempt at true colour imaging with multiple filters (LRGB) on a monochrome camera. A bit better than my first attempt last year on this object. I will try to image this again when the moon is not full and I should get a lot more detail. I had to process the the image a lot to pull what I have out of it, hence it being a bit 'grainy'
