Description

Eta Carinae Nebual (aka the Grand Nebula) is a region of bright and dark nebula located in the Carina constellation, located in the Carina-Sagittarius Arm. It is approximately 8500 light years from Earth.

I've lost of how many times I've imaged Carina now, I'm up to about 5.5hrs of data with my 61EDPH. Trying a new approach with processing here, creating red and blue colour masks and really trying to bring out the nebulosity.
