Description

It is almost impossible to get good quality RGB data to produce a "correct" colour image of IC434 from my location Due to the city light pollution and the low altitude of this target, narrowband is the way to go. SInce there is not that much O-III to be collected here, I tried the unusual SHH palette as an alternative.
