Description

IC-63, the Gamma Cass nebula, a.k.a. the Ghost of Cassiopeia.  This is a difficult one to process because 2nd magnitude Gamma Cas is in the field of view.  It is way too bright for a deep sky image, and it is a lot of work to tame it.  The nebula is HOO (yes, there is a tiny bit of Oiii), and the stars are RGB.
