Description

The Dumbell Nebula is a planetary nebula which scientists suspect our own sun may look like after going supernova. 

Two nights of 300s subs to produce this HOO image. This planetary nebula is so bright I had troubles with Pixinsight ez softstretching and had to manually stretch the H and O. Still haven't figured out a good method of getting correct HOO stars but seeing as this is my first pass at a planetary nebula, I'm ok with the results.
