Description

Hu1-1 is a tiny (but bright) PN lost in the swats of stars of Cassiopeia's Milky Way. So tiny it can easily mistaken for a star and I had to double-check that I got it right first time around (no Astrometry.net back then!). As for most of the LHaRGB of mine the H-alpha goes to enhance the L frame and gives better visibility and contrast to the small outer shell (think it a as a miniature Ring Nebula, of which there are quite a few around). In hindsight I should have gone full FL on this one so maybe I have to chalk this one up for a missed opportunity.
