Description

I would have liked to get double the amount of integration time on this target but the weather forecast didn't look like it was going to cooperate any time soon. The OIII channel really could have used more time. The way the Ha luminance layer muted the color and gave it depth intrigued me. There wasn't a lot of color contrast to begin with, so I left the lum layer very strong.

Title: IC405: Flaming Star Nebula in HOO

Description: Same data, just rearranged and without the SII. My OIII data wasn't very strong, so it's pretty much all red. An Ha Lum layer toned down the strong red that was the original result.
