Flame Nebula (Winter 2019)


This is data from Australia taken with a 17" Planewave CDK and SBIG 11000 monochrome camera.  The total data is relatively short, about an hour on each color and 3 hours of H-alpha.  After mixing the starless H-alpha and red, I combined as HaR-G-B.  The image is shrunk enough to fit on my laptop in its complete form. Of course, the blue glow to the right is from the star Alnitak, the most eastern of Orion's three belt stars.
