Description

IC 4628 is an active star-forming region in the southern hemisphere that is not very often imaged. It is an emission nebula located in the Sagittarius Arm of the Milky Way, around 6,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Scorpius. I have processed this in the SHO pallet but with RGB stars.
