Description

This was taken out at the McDonald Observatory in Fort Davis, Texas during a astrophotography workshop. I have learned that my stock Sony A6600 does not pick up Ha very well at all, even in Bortle 1 skies. The original image is just a straight stretch and I probably over processed it as well and it ended up way bluer that it should be. I'll have to come back to this one.
