Description

The Dumbbell Nebula M27 is one of the most well known planetary nebulae of the northern summer sky in Vulpecula.

The image is a result of 4 successive nights in August 2022, combined of images with the Optolong narrow band filter l-eXtreme and RGB pictures. The nebula is fully narrow band with Ha and OIII spectral light. From more than 7h RGB images, i used only about 50 minutes for the stars to get nice star colors and less oversaturation.
