Description

I recently saw a pretty exciting image of this area taken by the Gemini Observatory.
This led me to look at what I have on data for this part of the Lagoon.
Contrary to the CFHT palette of the Gemini image I processed it in SHO with rgb stars.
So it is basically 60 min. of each NB filter and 30 min. of each rgb.
I hope I´m not too boring with my posts, but at the moment I´m really enjoying image processing.
