Description

This is a restack of my previous work from 2017. This time I extracted the red image in CCD Ops

and used it as the luminance layer stacked with the rgb. I am not very pleased with it

.NGC 6357 is a diffuse nebula near NGC 6334 in the constellation Scorpius. The nebula contains many proto-stars shielded by dark disks of gas, and young stars wrapped in expanding "cocoons" or expanding gases surrounding these small stars. It is also known as the Lobster Nebula.
