after 6 weeks of useless imaging weather, finally no clouds, some beautiful seeing and winds below 20kts - yahoo.
this started out as quick "suck it and see", but the objects are so beautiful that it got 5.5 hours in the end. There are bubbles everywhere, including the possible isolated SN bubbles and the "bunch of grapes" complex with numerous shock fronts - presumably from a collection of cataclysmic events at the focus and distorted by the radiation and wind from the nearby SN?.
The region is also rich in O3 emission, which I did not record, but there is enough associated Ha to show the general structure. This will be worth a try with LRGB when the moon goes away.
