Description

This is the first nebulosity that I have aimed at with my new RASA8 and ASI2600MC (gain set to 100). Kind of hard to process due to the rich star field. I should get Starnet++ but my OS on the Mac is too old for it. I may collect som Ha for it next time it clears.

I like the dark nebulosity and globules apparently laying above the Ha structures.

The propeller nebula (also known as Simeis 57) is up in the left corner and kind of obvious.

Description: Version A was too saturated in red. I think this one is better (turned up the blue in the red using Selective Color in PS)

C

Description: Saturated the blue stars more to balance the red dominance a bit.
