Description

SH(OB) version of Christmas Tree nebula with fox fur and cone nebula.
Taken on 3 different nights.
The fox fur nebula is one of my favourites and I'm pretty happy with this result.
3h of Ha
3H of Sii
1h of Oiii
90 minutes of B filter
3min exposures  
ZWO filters. 
The blue channel is a combination of Oiii and mostly the blue filter which had a lot more detail than the Oiii!!! It definitely helps to give the impression of a snow covered christmas tree.
ZWO 2600mm
CEM70g
ES 127mm carbon fiber
