RCW40 in Vela
CMOS SHO Image, 3.5 hrs integration. As this is the first of Telescope Live CMOS images, I had to take a shot at processing it. I processed it in PixInsight to achieve a Hubble Palette image. In addition to the individual SHO masers, I created an artificial Luminence frame by averaging the 3 master images. Fascinating working on an emission nebula that I've never seen before.
