Description

SL 17 -Unofficialy called the "Fenrir Nebula" is a dark absorption nebula located in Scorpius, that resembles -at least to me- a wolf-like monster from the Norse mythology.

In this image, i tried to achieve more natural-like colors, so i captured data using the H Alpha filter, and merged it with short exposures captured using the red, green and blue filters.
