Description

Re-attempted this target in narrowband. This is only 2 hours of Ha and 2 hours of oxygen, but I only had one night and wanted a colour image out of it. It's quite an improvement on my previous attempt with a DSLR at least . It took a lot of experimenting with the different stretches of the Ha and OIII before I could get an RGB image with any blue in it, the Ha is just so strong. Good challenge.
