Description

All data was collected in my urban backyard around the new moon but in a bortle 7+ location for light pollution. I would love to have had better RGB data as it was pretty scant, but the HA data was pretty strong and carried the image. The dust in this area is something I would love to chase from darker skies where I can let the broadbands filters capture more light...faint light! Next time!
