Three Bugs.

[rat156]

Hi All,

Had some fun imaging and processing these.

Two good nights for Ha, SII, OIII, R, G and B.

Ha, SII and OIII taken on the 7th, R, G and B taken on the 14th of August

First image is in Hubble palette, with SII, Ha and OIII assigned to Red, Green and Blue respectively. The "Green Bug"

Second image is using the Ha and OIII data, creating a synthetic green channel from this data. The "Plastic Bug"

Last image is L(Ha)RGB. Le Bug au naturelle.

Cheers
Stuart

Hi Stuart,

Some fun had here, I quite like the Hubble palette, but I think the au naturelle one is my favourite.

Interesting shot no matter which one you prefer, although I don't really know what it is? Does it have an NGC or other name?

Cheers

Chris

woops, sorry Stuart, should have read the link.

Never mind on the NGC dumb question, I figured it out.
