Description

Always the first thing to look at with binos or the first telescope seeing it as a "grey fuzzy".  I feel quite lucky to be able to image this and get a closer look.  Pretty awe inspring each time I view it through a scope.

Tried my hand at narrowband, but trying to keep the colors mostly natural.  Hope you enjoy!
