Description

Back from vacation finally! Had a great time relaxing, but now time to start pushing out some more images

Here is NGC 6357, completed the SHO version of it a while ago, but it took ages to get the RGB version to look decent. Glad I took my time though and didn't give up. Surprisingly red, I knew from the SHO work that there was very little Oiii in the area. Still though, most emission nebulae are at least a little magenta from that Oiii, not this one though!
