The Lobster Nebula NGC/6357

[Jen]

This is my biggest project so far :eyepop:
The Lobster Nebula :P
Im slowly getting the hang of this RGB imaging lol :D:D
Just over 12 hours integration time to get this image 😱
I think i spent that long also trying to process, this wasn't an easy one to do, 🥵 i think i could still work on my colors and that blue halo seems to be a problem in this image also 🤬
6minute subs in HaRGB - Processed in Astro Pixel Processor

Hey Jen, nice to see you making use of that fantastic observatory!
Can you post a bigger picture, I can only see a really small one? Or a link to Astrobin or something?

[Jen]

Imagine what you could achieve with a well made, comfortable, professional, twin scope, ROR with viewing window and warm room, observatory, that's purple!...:shrug: :lol:
