Description

Taken over the 3 nights of 21-23 Dec 2022.

A small asymmetrical shaped planetary nebula in Cassiopeia also known as PNG128.0-4.1 and  Simeis22.
The Dolphin Nebula (some call it the shrimp nebula) is approximately 850 light years from Earth.

Shot in SHO, and RGB used for the stars.
Due to weather, did not get as much integration time as I hoped.
Processed in PI, with pixel math for the nebula color combo, also used SPCC and StarX for the RGB stars,
and BlurX and NoiseX, and lots of curve work on this one, and some touch up in a photo editor.

Thanks for looking,
CS
Pete
