Description

My first attempt at this nebula. Caught it too late in the year so I didn't get enough time on target while it was high in the sky.,,

Update: Fooling around with the SHO data and new processing techniques. Also oriented the nebula in proper orientation to a monkey head!  Still a work in progress but liking the palette.
