Description

Acquired Ha on IC63 as a competing target with the long M31 mosaic project.  Added a night of RGBL and blended all together.  Quite some time ago I did an image of IC63 retaining the wonderful bright field star but this time my exposures were a bit long and there is too much saturation to make it interesting this time so I cropped it out in favor of the nebula.  Used the Falcon rotator to square up the composition.  Ended up with 31x300s Red, 40x180s Green and Blue. CLS luminance was 62x120s with Ha as 113x600s.
