Description

One of the most frequently imaged targets in the night sky. Many imagers use different processes to bring out the vast amount of colors in this nebula. I decided to mimic NASA's Hubble Telescope image pallet the best I can get out of my data and this image was the result of many hours of color balancing my final result.

Used Astrodon  (prior to Farpoint acquisition) filters
