Description

This is a section of the dark nebuka Barnard 150, in Cepheus. My fied of view is prhaps a little small for this target, but it does show a pretty good hunk of it. I know there are particular trick to processing dark nebulae images, and I have much to learn. I am mostly going after really distinct targets that jump out in Ha, like B 162. But, need to keep pushing the envelope and learn how to capture these others as well. In an effort to darken the background and reduce star size I got some mottled effects. So it's a netter image ay a smaller scale, don't blow it up.

The L channel was extracted from the RGB combined and then recombined with RGB masters.
