Description

NB RGB Compilation .

I'm curious about what causes the diffuse blue halo around some of the stars. Is it moisture in the atmosphere, or from shining through the nebulosity. I like to think its the latter, since that makes the photo more interesting, but I suspect its the former. Oops if it was my processing, but I don't think so.
