Description

This is the RCW 59 Emission Nebula, which to my surprise I did not find any version of it in Astrobin at the time of publication. I read in an article that it says it's probably a supernova remnant rather than region II. It is quite weak since despite the almost 10 hours of exposure it cost to bring the structures to light. Of the various versions I made, it seems to me that the one I got with the Forax palette was the one that fit best.
