Description

I began capturing the data for this image on Valentines Day, but now over 6 months later the nebula has returned and allowed me to record sufficient data to complete it.
The data was captured using an ASI2600MM camera with Antlia narrow band filters in combination with my 553mm focal length ESPRIT 100ED refractor.
Stacking was done in Deep Sky Stacker and the the image processed in Photoshop after separating the background from the stars using starnet++.

The Hubble Pallet was used to present the SHO data..
Approximately 8 hours of integration time in Bortle 4 skies.
