Hi all. Here is a narrowband image of M27, taken last night. I was a little surprised at the amount of OIII emissions in the area. This is a full resolution crop of a Ha-OIII-OIII image with roughly 3 hours of OIII data and 2 hours of Ha, taken with my ASA N8 and Starlight Xpress SXVF-H16 camera. What an interesting object! Comments are always welcome.
Cheers,
Tyler

I like it Tyler. Looks like you have brought out some features not often seen in this object.
