It isn't hard for me to walk into the backyard, uncover my scope and then
shoot images

trouble is that we get a lot more cloudy nights than you probably do in NM.

Keep up the good work Martin, I like seeing your images!

The Hubble Palette in narrow band imaging

Combining images from narrowband filters is often done using the
Hubble tricolor palette, in which SII, Ha, and OIII are assigned to
R, G, and B, respectively.

This image of the Rosette Nebula in Monoceros (NGC 2237) shows what
can be done with a small scope such as a Takahashi Sky 90 with SBIG
ST-10MXE
