This was largely an experiment as there was nothing much else I could do with the moon almost full. I haven't seen any similar images of NGC 346 probably because it is more photogenic in plain old RGB.

The SII data is new, the rest is from data obtained in 2015.

Cheers

Steve

Very fine, Steve. The SII is beautifully shown.

Had a look at our shot. We were surprised to see that we've not done it in SII. Greatly inspired by your shot, we must fix that.

Thanks M&T. The SII is actually fairly subdued in this region. Took a bit of work to bring it out.



Thanks Marcus. Probably continue working on it as I believe it can be improved.



Thanks Colin

Top shelf stuff Steve, one of the best I've seen of that target.
Beautifully processed and framed, well done! :thumbsup:

Thanks Andy. Coming from someone with your narrow band expertise that's high praise indeed.
