NGC7008 Fetus Nebula BiColor with Luminance 22hrs
      #5430146 - 09/20/12 12:12 AM

Hi all
Finally finished this image. This is NGC7008 the Fetus Nebula in the constellation Cygnus. This is a BiColor image, Ha10hrs OIII10hrs with only 2hrs of Luminance added to it.I was having a tough time processing the narrowband data, so I decided to get some luminance for this. It made a huge difference.I've been experimenting adding luminance from the 17in Planewave to some of my older data taken with my TMB130mm. This was the first time I used luminance from the same scope. Really made a difference.
