Description

Just an hour of narrowband H-alpha light for this lovely nebula.

Mostly a target of opportunity while waiting for the Leo galaxies, it nevertheless shows you can image nebulas in narrowband even with the Moon just 15-20 degrees away.

Also consider that the "narrowband" Hα filter I use is indeed made by the combination of a 642 Proplanet IR filter and a Fringe Killer filter and is 35nm wide.
