Description

This is a re-working of some data taken back in 2022 and processed using my latest workflow in Pixinsight.The image is an SHO rendition of the Spider and Fly nebulae (IC417 and NGC 1931), which are in the constellation of Auriga. I didn’t take any rgb data for the stars so have used the combined SHO stars and applied the ‘Correct Magenta Stars’ script and Bill Blanshen’s Modified SCNR routine; I don’t think they have turned out too bad.
