Description

The end of a star can look so beautiful. 
I photographed the galactic remnant in the constellation Gemini over 8 nights in January and February 2023.
I have paid attention to the existing OIII, which is strongly present in this area. Fascinating how the OIII integrates into the structures and over a large scale into the Ha and SII. 
I carried out the color calibration process with the SPCC in PixInsight. 
As a reference, I chose the star Eta Geminorum (Tropus) which radiates in the spectral class M3 IIIab to get a natural look of the stars.

Hope you like it, have fun watching... CS and stay well
