Description

This is Sh2-132 (part of the lion nebula)
It is located in the southern edge of the constellation of Cepheus.
Estimated at 10400 light years from earth, two massive wolf-Rayet stars are responsible for the ionization of gasses.
There are a lot of renditions of Sh2-132
SHO, HSO, HOO, LRGBha and other variations 
RGB is faint, but narrow band is fairly strong in this region of the Milky Way
I like all of them, each version shows different structures, so why not combine them.
Using pixel math, I combined four sets of separate data.
Hoo, Sho, and a small percentage of the foraxx script 
Then after minor adjustments the RGB stars were added.
Way too much work.
Hopefully you’ll like this version
