Description

This is an emission nebula in Perseus that I've been spending the past couple of months collecting data on. I also hope to put together an HLRGB in addition to this SHO palette presented here. Version 1 is presented here with the saturation pushed very hard to reveal a little more distinct color regions in the bright nebula core.

Description: Started over - this time made a synthetic luminance. I left more green in it again, though may do another revision that removes it. I mean, when it comes to green, it is a SHO palette image, after all.

Description: Less traditional SHO, more emphasis on red and blue (so no unnatural greens in final image). Tried to not "overbake" this one (except for the false colors, I guess).
