Description

My best attempt so far to capture and process this Pacman Nebula.

Red - SII = 18 x 1800s bin1

Green - HA = 28 x 1800s bin1

Blue - OIII = 17 x 1800s bin1

30 hours total time integration helps a lot for processing, I used the tone map technique with Pixinsight and Starnet ++ for removing the stars before stretching. Very efficient method !

Hope you like it !

Clear Skies !
