Description

The data for this image are from Deep Sky West (https://www.deepskywest.com/) and consisted of almost 14 hours of LRGB data plus 9.5 hours of Ha.  The system consisted of a 135mm Rokinon lens combined with a QSI 583 WSG5 camera and was located in New Mexico.  The data were processed using Pixinsight and to a lesser degree Photoshop.  GraXpert AI was used to remove gradients.  Color calibration utilized SPCC.  The Ha data were not added to the RGB,  but were included in the super luminance (all masters) which was use to create the LRGB.
