Description

Hello everyone,

Here is my latest processed image, NGC 1491, also known as the Fossil footprint in Perseus.
I captured it over 5 nights in late 2022 and early 2023.
Unfortunately, I lost a significant amount of Sulphur and Oxygen data due to parasites appearing as horizontal streaks on all the images from one evening. It seems like there's never a night without some kind of issue.
The image is in false-color using the Hubble palette (SHO) and the stars are represented in RGB.
