Description

Reprocessed my Wolf and Shark data from night before last.
Objects: VDB 152 AKA Wolf's Cave Nebula, Shark Nebula
selected the best subs and mapped the RGB stars correcly this time LOL that is why we call it "learning"
Exposure: 100X120"(ha), 63x60"(Lum) 30x15"(Blue), 30x30"(Red), 30x30"(Green), Total: 5.6 hours Bortle scale: 5/6
Optics: Rokinon 135mm f/2.0
Camera: ZWO ASI294MM-Pro Mount: iOptron CEM26 Filters: Astrodon 5nm Ha and ZWO LRGB
Software: PixInsight, Photoshop
Notes: 90% moon and bortle 5/6 made this target not show up until the next day (during processing). I was after the Wolf's Cave and was presently surprised to see the Shark Nebula photo-bombing the evening . Realized I had my LRGB mapped wrong so this update has better star color.
