Description

I pulled this crop from my Heart and Soul Mosaic.  HB3 is a very large supernova remnant right next to the "fish head" in the Heart Nebula.  Its much fainter than the Heart itself which makes for very challenging processing.  So I cropped it out and focused only on the SNR.  I have only found a few other people who have imaged this target.  I cut the top off as I didnt realize it was there when I was imaging my Mosaic. 

I'm collecting some more data on it with a better composition as I wait for my next target to rise above the trees. 

In any event, I thought people would like to see it in a little more detail.  C&C Welcome.
