Description

I used heavier amounts of Ha data to accentuate the nebulosity throughout this region. RGB data was collected from a urban and suburban area on the nights of 3/1 and 3/3 and was done for star color mainly. Very little structure was captured in RGB. I tried to gather RGB data before moonrise each night. The sky was particularly good on the night of 3/3, with a pre moonrise SQM of 19.07. Ha data was used both as a Lum channel and to augment the red channel.
