Description

Taken with an Optolong L-Extreme Ha/Oiii filter. After calibration,  2x2 drizzled integration, and initial post-processing, the image was separated into individual RBG channels. From there, PixelMath was used  to create (artificial) Ha and Oiii images. Following that, LRGB combination was used to combine the Ha and Oiii images to create a false color image, with red representing Ha and blue representing Oiii.

Captured on 9/19, 9/21, 9/22, 9/24, and 9/25/2021.
