Description

This was my first attempt at this very beautiful, but very dim nebula.  I was still using Nebulosity 4, and Adobe Photoshop to process.  I have now switched to Pixinsight, and continue to use Photoshop, and Topaz Labs DeNoise.  I plan on going back when it comes back around, and re imaging this beautiful nebula.  Given where I was in my processing education, I am amazed I was able to do this well.  I have a long way to go, but it's been a fun ride so far!
