Description

The Crescent Nebula, NGC 6888 in HOO/RGB.  This is a combination of old and new data.  Unfortunately, I inadvertently rotated the camera 90 degrees between sessions, so I had to crop it to an almost square format.  Luckily it works for this target.  The nebula and background are mostly HOO, with a smidgen of RGB, because the reds were delicious.  The stars are Ha for luminance with RGB colours.
