Description

Data gathered over two nights and processed using the latest Russell Croman BlurXTerminator.  The nebula detail was certainly helped by this and further enhanced in Photoshop with Pro Digital Astonomy Tools, Local Contrast Enhancement.  This was meant to be an SHO image but I mistakenly used the Ha on the blue channel instead of the 3.3 Hrs of OIII data.  I may revise this processing in future but I am happy with the result so far.
