Description

Back to narrowband imaging with my first ever supernova remnant! Weather has finally been getting better this summer, I am looking forward to imaging other of the large narrowband targets in Cygnus.
Unfortunately my Baader Oiii filter causes reflection halos around bright stars, but thanks to many online tutorials I removed them as best as I could after hours of masking in PixInsight.
