Description

After my first image of the Heart Nebula in HOO, I wanted to collect some SII data and give SHO a try. What you see is an artistic representation of an SHO image with quite some image tweaking to highlight the structures of the nebula. Maybe it is too much tweaking, but hey, why not trying it and sharing the result for good advise. Without it, it's difficult to improve... CS!
