Description

The RASA8 astrograph is a great tool for widefield imaging.  Again I used IDAS NBZ nebula booster filter in combinition with IDASS LP filter to obtain Ha/OIII and RGB series. Ha and OIII portions were extracted in Astro Pixel processor and combined with the RGB portion in PixInsight.  Thanks to Michael Figenbaum for reccomending the scipt Star De-emphasizer, which really is a great tool to reduce the number of stars in an image such as this.  I still struggle with avoiding burned out cores of the nebula and galaxies, but am working on the task hoping to improve .

Enjoy... comments are always welcome!
