IC4406 - visible and near infrared comparison

[Stevec35]

This was my second NIR shot with this telescope and I put it side by side with a visible shot of this planetary. Conditions were much better this time and it's a better quality image but the NIR shot isn't very different from the visible.

Cheers

Steve

More intense stars in near IR,and I can see one star in the neb that I cant see in the straight LRGB Steve...interesting work.

Thanks Louie. There is different detail there but it's fairly subtle.

Nice comparison, Steve!

Thanks Rick. Perhaps not as dramatic as I had hoped but it's nice to get it done.
