Description

In may this year i uploaded to Astrobin an LRGB image of the Coddington's galaxy. On July 18, my friend Carlos Arribas took 18 images of the galaxy in Ha with his newton 200/800 and QHY268 camera. I have used these images to modify the chrominance of the LRGB image. The results and the experience of sharing the work have been very gratifying.
