Description

Realized I archived this one without posting it so back out it comes...

Always thought this one reminded me more of a pearl in an oyster than just a bubble, but that may be because it is one of my favorite objects and one of the first ones I imaged. It's nice to revisit with a higher focal lengths and narrower band filters.

One thing I found interesting is the seemingly spiral pattern of dust surrounding the 'bubble'. Also tried to keep a bunch of the background texture as well since it reveals a bit of the nature of the nebula's neighborhood.

Taken over 17 nights in 2020: 10/6, 10/8, 10/9, 10/14, 10/15, 10/17, 10/18, 10/30, 10/31, 11/2, 11/4, 11/6, 11/7, 11/8, 11/9, 11/10 and 11/13

Threw out 18 hours (!) of subs on this one due to clouds and quality.
