NGC 7380, the Wizard Nebula.  This is a reprocess of previous data, with the addition of some Oiii data from last night.  (First official light for the new filter.)

 

Orion 200mm f/4 Newtonian
Atik 383L+

 

7x 900s Oiii, 1x1
14x 900s Ha, 1x1
1x 600s Ha, 1x1
3x 300s L, 1x1
6x 300s R, 1x1
5x 300s G, 1x1
4x 300s B, 1x1
Total exposure: 6h 55m

The luminance detail for the nebula comes from the Ha data.  Nebula colours are from Ha (red) and Oiii (green and blue).  Stars are from LRGB.

You really brought out the wizard, his pointy hat and clutching arms.  The Oiii really adds to the depth.  Lovely image.
