Description

This is the crop of a 4-panel mosaic of the Heart Nebula (IC1805) - the aim is to show the intricate details at the centre. The image was taken with an Optolong L-Extreme filter and a QHY268c colour camera, and processed in PixInsight with Bill Blanshan's HooNormalization script to create a "pseudo" HOO palette.

Maybe I was a little bit heavy-handed with the saturation, but my wife likes it :-)
