Description

This is an image from my backyard observatory in the suburbs of Carlsbad, CA. First light for a new camera added to the fleet: A QSI 683-wsg8. Imaged through narrowband filters under a bright moon. 2.5 hrs of Ha, 1.5 hrs of OIII and 1.5 hrs of SII in 10 minute subs. Color mapped using the Hubble palette with Ha = green; SII = red, and OIII = blue.
