Description

This image of the Crescent nebula was taken with the RASA 11. I removed the stars as the first stage in processing. I will add the stars in a future revision.

Notice the Soap bubble nebula in the top left of the image. It is very faint- so great to capture under my Bortle 7 sky.

Title: RGB Stars added to the previous crescent nebula image

Description: I used the Astrodon/Celestron LPR filter to capture 250 5 second subs and add these to the previous image. This has maintained the rich narrowband data with nice RGB stars.
