Wizards Nebula (NGC7380) Hubble Pallet

I've had the opportunity over the past few nights to capture a few hours of the Wizard Nebula with an S2/O3 filter. I've combined that with all the Ha/O3 data I had captured earlier in the summer and married that up with a set of RGB data for the stars. Here is the resultant image.

 

I definitely could use more S2 integration time but I really like the gradient of colors across the nebula. This is a true Hubble pallet image of the Wizard Nebula with S2 mapped to red, O3 to blue and Ha to green. There is a total of 16.25, hours of Ha, 20.5 hrs of O3, and 4.3 hrs of S2. Over time I'll try and balance our the S2 and Ha data and reprocess the image.

 

All images were taken with a Sky-Watcher Esprit 100ED telescope and a QHY-268C OSC.

 

Stacking and image processing with Siril, GraXpert, and Adobe Photoshop with final tweaks in Lightroom.
