Description

Sharpless H2 region 119 also known as the clamshell nebula. I don't have a very wide field setup so this is a rather close up view.
Captured The Ha in Jan '23 but ran out of time to complete as Cygnus set. Captured the SII and OIII 8 months later.
Taken as a traditional SHO image and tweaked with the Narrow Band Normalization tool in PI for a bit of extra pizzazz.
