Description

Sh2-188 The Shrimp Nebula: SHO with RGB stars.

Planetary Nebula in the constellation Cassiopeia the Queen, about 750 LY distant, about 75,000 years old.

Ha and SII very similarly calibrated channels with Ha slightly brighter. Good OIII but kept the blue colouring subtle and in the background - found this allowed better contrast to the image and enhanced the lighter gold toned yellow hues of the compressive direction of the "shrimp ring".
