Description

This was imaged on an unexpected 'bonus' night where skies remained clear. Not much S2 or O3 signal was captured but it was rich in Hydrogen-Alpha.

2 versions to highlight different aspects (there is a bit more contrast around 'the pillars of creation' in the SHO version, while it is a bit easier to see the foreground dust structures in Ha):
