Description

I gathered this from my backyard observatory this past summer. It's Narrow Band, about 5.5 hours total, evenly split between Ha, OIII and Sii filters. Each image was 4 minutes with my QHY 268m camera, Astrodon filters and TEC 140 scope. I'm finding I really like this setup with my AP 1100GTO mount as its all working together very smoothly with SGP. 
The processing was done as a SHO image, with Pixinsight, in a very basic way as I'm still learning it.  
Thanks for looking, and any comments or questions are more than welcome!
John
