Description

The Animal House was my daughter's idea and she loves it.  She found the Tadpole Nebula, Spider Nebula, and Fly Nebula all in the same framing and immediately exclaimed "It's an Animal House!"  After that, we just had to make this our last winter project before the area fell below the treeline that surrounds our house.  It is also our first project with the Optolong L-Extreme, so we can do better narrowband processing.  Thanks to Bill Blashan's narrowband normalization script in PI, the HOO palette brought out some cool purple with the gold Ha.
