Description

Combination of both narrowband and broadband data. The pure narrowband image does not show the blue reflection nebula particularly well, thus it is necessary to add some some blue and green also.

The base RGB image has been imaged using the broad IDAS light pollution filter on an ASI 071 color camera. This image has then been spiced up with Ha and O-III images taken with the mono ASI 1600 as well as Quad-band TRIAD on the ASI 071.

Data has been gathered over winter nights in the period of 2019-2021 and took a while to combine.
