Description

This material was gathered over a couple of months last winter and I was never able to get it quite right.  A request left me with no choice but to open 120 PI processes and 38 scripts and face the enemy HEAD ON.  Only took half a year.

The problem here is the stars which don't get removed too well, nebulosity in H and in dusts, reflection nebulae, and the dark nebula.  It's just a lot to handle.
