Description

This LRGB image of ic63  "The Ghost Nebula" has an interesting added effect, which I believe is the radiance of its bright neighbor star Gamma Cassiopeia -- "Let there be Light!"
Image data for this image was:  29 x 300 seconds Luminance 1x1;  17 x 300 seconds each RGB binned 2x2.

Telescope:  24" f8 RC   Camera:  FLI-PL-09000   Gen II LRGB Filters
