Description

This is an HaLRGB image with the Ha used both to enhance the red channel and as luminance, the latter application turning the reds somewhat pink, but with pending hip surgery I don't know if I'll be able to capture true luminance data anytime soon.
VersB is an HaRGB version, i.e. I did not the Ha as luminance.
