Description

This is basically a fail.

I imaged this difficult object from my Bortle 7 driveway for 1 fairly decent night.

But the grey colored gas remains too dim in the photo to stand out.  I couldn't figure out a mask that would accentuate the gassy puffs alone.  I separated out the stars, which did make the gas more visible, but overall, the photo is mostly a dud.

I will just keep the data and perhaps add to it at some point.  I had hoped that the IDAS filter would work for it, but it was not enough.
