Description

Fellow astrophotographer Alex Hawkinson (@gazingoutwards) was super kind and gathered 28 hours of data (19 hours Lum, 3 hours each of R,G,B) on my recent discovery, the Hummingbird Nebula, with his Planewave telescope system located at Sierra Remote observatories! The first revision is a square crop to highlight the hummingbird. The second revision is the full field of view. The third revision is a comparison to the infrared image taken by Spitzer space telescope.
