Description

California Nebula in HaRGB - Starless version

-------------------------

This is the starless version of the image I was able to capture back in November/December 2019.

It is the result of 12 hours of combined Ha + RGB colour data on this enormous emission nebula, which is located ~1500 light years away from us.

It was produced using the Starnet++ software.

The original image can be found here:



The Ha-only version of it can be found here:



I don't usually do starless images, but sometimes they can be very impressive and show a clearer definition of the details of the nebulosity.

Telescope: Sky-Watcher Evostar ED80 Black Diamond
