Thought I had plenty of Ha and OIII to bring out the outer ring however it could have done with more. Unfortunately Pixinsight wasn't cooperating so couldn't run batch pre-processing script until I got home.

Yes Chris - ended up blending some Ha and OIII into the Luminosity to make that come out. I think originally I was just playing with the LRGB data.

Thanks Rick - I was determined to come back with some different images this year - for the last couple I've been redoing images I have from previous years. There is an amazing APOD of this object by Don Goldman that shows the extent of the bubble however it doesn't say how he imaged it - suspect a lot of Ha and OIII.

Nice colours too.

It's an interesting target - parts of it show up quite bright in the wider field images of NGC6188 however there is a lot more to this when you hit it with NB.

Geoff - this had quite a lot of Ha and OIII (31x5mins of each). The LRGB was only around 6x5 mins of each.

Yep - Greg Bond told me to give it heaps of Ha and OIII so I did!
