Description

First try at the Cocoon Nebula with the Altair Hypercam 269C.

Originally, I blended in some Ha using the red channel from my Optolong l-eNhance but it was a bit wishy washy so I shelved that plan. I may revisit it if I get more integration time using the filter.

On reflection, I should have framed it with the core bottom left to get some more of the dark gas with stretches off to the right. You live and learn!
