Description

This image was a bit of a last minute capture decision, and I ended up taking just Hα and RGB data. This made for a strange combination, and I am not totally sold on how the result came out. I did get a lot of detail from the Hα channel, but blending it into the red channel was difficult. In any case, this is a very active region of the sky, and the amount of nebulosity I was able to capture did create some nice detail.
