Description

The well known SH2-240 with Samyang f2/135 + ASI1600MM+EFW (Ha, O3, S2). Three nights (at least part of those nights) then combined in APP, processed as B&W for each channel in PS21, then recombined in APP as HOS and last HSL conversion in Affinity Photo. Probably not what most astrophotographers like, but it reminds me to a skull.... once in a blue moon, an experiment is OK, I guess :-)
