Description

Difficult nebula: a bit of a shame to ignore the SII layer in an HOO image, so mixing an HOO image with an HSO image allows the three narrow bands to be enhanced. The interpretation of colors is obviously totally personal. 

H: 18 x 180
O: 10 x 180 (the moon prevents more takes)
S: 17 x 180

Tak FSQ-106 ext. 1,6 EM-200, ZWO 6200 -10d, Astrodon 5nm
