Subject: M27: A planetary nebula in the constellation Vulpecula, located about 1360 light-years from earth.
Capture notes: A straightforward narrowband capture. S-ii was captured over two different nights due to some clouds coming in the first night, but otherwise all lights were taken during a long run of extremely clear summer nights in Seattle (making up for last winter I suppose).
Processing notes: I used tone maps to stretch the individual narrowband channels, combined them into an RGB image and then applied a synthetic luminance made by integrating the original narrowband channels. My main concern with this image is whether I went overboard with deconvolution ... most of the detail can be attributed to applying local histogram equalization to the luminance.

They will not know that they have been shadow-banned, and the goal is that eventually they will get bored while having caused no harm, since nobody saw what they posted.
You will remove your shadow-ban on this user, and their comments, messages, etc, will appear again on your content.
Such limitation improves the website as a whole by discouraging people from creating fake accounts to like their own content. Thank you for understanding!
