Heart Nebula IC 1805

Heart nebula (IC 1805) taken with my mono CMOS astro-camera with narrowband filters and then colored during post-processing with SHO (SII, Ha, OIII) palette. Image data was collected using my ES 102 mm telescope and the field of view (FOV) only covered about 2/3 of the nebula. I am working on new image of this nebula using a mosaic technique to capture the entire nebula. Technical Info:
