Description

Thor's Helmet (NGC 2459) taken over the course of 2 nights.

BIN 2 in postprocessing due to using a CMOS sensor and seeing not supporting BIN1

Stack and processed in Pixinsight with some curves adjustment to take the Cyan from HOO to more of a blue color and applied some LHE to improve details. Hope you enjoy!
