Description

First time trying quad color (Ha -> red, OIII -> blue/teal, SII -> orange/green, and NII -> purple, don't know that I'll stick with this scheme though). Also trying to really push the image to get the most of the third outer ring possible. Along with (incompletely) trying to get rid of some reflection arcs, I'm probably trying to do too many things at once! But I'm learning a lot as I go along.

I'm definitely wanting to get more on this next year, to pull out the outer rings better.
