Very nice image George. Very good signal for a RGB image.



Stefan,

When I finally got to processing this one I was disappointed that the
nebula was so dim. Then I checked the date/time and realized that it was
taken under nearly full moon conditions. Imaging like that makes me realize
what big city astronomers like you have to deal with all of the time!
