Description

This revision has about twice as much image data added to the processing.  My goal was to reveal as much of the faint blue structure that covers the "Running Man".   Post processing was a bit different to have greater color contrast.

Early morning image of ngc1977  "Running Man Nebula" as an RGB test.
Image data was:  16 x 300 seconds Red 1x1;  16 x 300 seconds each Green and Blue binned 2x2

Telescope:  24" f8 RC   Camera:  FLI-PL-09000  Gen II Filters

Imaged 11-2-21 from our Sagrada Observatory.  Seeing conditions averaged 1.8 arcsecs
