Description

Finaly I'm back to processing images. I've spent a lot of time preparing new hardware for the remote observatory set up in Spain.
This is sh2-69 in LHaRGB. There are two small planetary nebulas hidden in this image. Can you find them? Top centre is PK03+01.1 and bottom left is PNG032.5+01.5 (original version).
I only found them after inspecting the Ha data. Especially PNG032.5+01.5 is very clearly visible in the Ha, not so much in this LHaRGB rendition. 
There is quite an amount of fiant Ha clouds in the background. This gives an interessting reddish structure and a nice contrast to the bright blue stars in the foreground.
Beautiful region!

Enjoy

Robert
