Description

A favorite target - and one I wanted to test with the filterless approach of my last acquisition. 65 / 173 30 second subs were used, and with the limited exposure - it seemed to lack nebulosity outside the pillars for my taste - so I combined it with 20 300s subs from the GSO RC6 and a proper STC Astro DuoNarrowband filter. A few new PixInsight and Photoshop tricks since 2020 also helped.
