Description

13.4 hours of narrow band integration below zero and from 71% to 91% full moon. Conditions were not great but I am happy with the signal. The stars were corrected substituting with a photometric color calibrated frame. It is the central section of the known heart nebula comprising the open cluster Melotte 15 that makes all sorts of reflections and shadows highlighting the dust and gas conglomerates.
I used Photshop to tweak some star halos and Adobe lightroom to improve noise, vibrance and contrast
