The Horsehead Nebula: Another different look with SHαHβ
The Horsehead Nebula, IC434, using a H-alpha , H-beta, and SII filter with a ZWO294mm Pro on a C11" EdgeHD @f/ 7. I reprocessed my previous version using a different PixelMath combination. The H-beta filter gives it a different look that I like but may not please those who are use to the more traditional look.

Thanks Marius!
You will have a great time with the H-beta filter. Lots of ways to explore great new options for narrowband imaging.

I like the look you give it. I have yet been able to get a good image of the horsehead yet. If these darn clouds would go away I can get back to imaging. Starting to get withdrawal's.
Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most! :tease:
