Description

My attempt at imaging the Helix planetary nebula in Aquarius.

Not sure I can see a helix in there ... maybe the "Eye of God" title suits better.

Reprocessed Sept 2018 RGB data from my dearly departed ASI183 OSC. The RGB was quite niosy from only 1.7 hours of data. But LRGB blending in some Luminance data seems to have improved things quite a bit.

I think I'm falling in love with Luminance!
