Description

A challenge to get the faint Halpha clouds around the very bright Cocoon.
Wish I had more clear skies to push for more.
I am very happy with the colours of the stars considering Bortle 7+ conditions.
Shot from suburbia, I had issues with a light leak that affected the RGB image.

I shot this a the beginning of the Canadian summer before the fires and humidity kicked in.

150 x 5min Halpha 
130 x 90sec Red
189 x 60sec Blue
192 x 60sec Green
