Description

Revision: H

Title Narrowband Normalized

Description I reprocessed the data with Blanshan and Cranfield's Narrowband Normalization process, Mode 2 to retain the red Ha and cyan OIII. The contrast between the colors allowed me to leave the peripheral nebulosity a little more, well, nebulous.
