Description

I captured this over a couple of nights capturing mostly OIII, with Lum and some Ha. Interestingly, my first capture was back in September with my ASI 294 MC pro using a OIII filter.  With APP I was able to do an RGB combine with my ASI 2600 MM Pro images and my 294.   

NGC 246 is a relatively large planetary nebula in the constellation Cetus with a magnitude of 10.9 and about 1,600 light years away.  I loaded a wide angle image as there are several galaxies around this image and I loaded a cropped image.
