Description

The final version of the Christmas Tree cluster, in HOO. I captured the Ha and OIII data 2 and 3 days respectively after the full Moon. The narrow bandpass did a great job, but I'll probably give it another go next year with more integration time and hopefully no full Moon. Perhaps add some SII as well, although I kind of like the bicolor look!
