Description

Fooling around with the Narrow Band Color Mapper utility.  I mapped SHO in natural colors along with my RGB data so I could get good use out of all of the data I collected.  It’s such a great tool!  In hindsight, I should have framed Gamma Cassiopeia in frame to clearly show the interaction of the dust clouds with such a bright powerful star. However, I was afraid of blowing out the image with such a bright star. Hindsight is always 20:20! That will be a goal for next year!

Happy Holidays and clear skies to all!
