NGC 6826 "Blinking Eye"
Somehow I ended up looking at this version of NGC 6826 in which the red channel was badly blown out and I also wondered if I could pick and arrange the different filters available to not end up with a lime green nebula. Yet another version, done for Chandra so we can see the x-rays emitting from the nebula, seemed awfully grainy and had a sharpening halo around the center of the nebula.
Inspired by these two, I have created my own version. Also, since the data was readily available, I did my own x-ray version too.
Red: hst_11122_14_wfpc2_f658n_pc_sci
Green: hst_08390_07_wfpc2_f555w_pc_sci
Blue: hst_11122_14_wfpc2_f502n_pc_sci
North is up.
