Description

I knew that this Hα-heavy image would be able to benefit from having a strong L channel, so I decided to stack ~150 frames to give it a real solid base. 
Dropping a deconvoluted & refined Hα clone into the luminance channel really gets you off the hook considering how dim the Oiii and Sii were. The SHO image was essentially a very convoluted one as I had to use heavy MLT denoising to get desirable brightness.
