M27 - NII, Ha, OIII

Finally got 3nm NII data of M27 to use with the Ha and OIII image of M27 that
was posted two weeks ago. 3nm NII contains a lot more detail in the core of M27
than 3nm Ha so the NII data was layered on top of the red data of the M27 Ha and
OIII image using lighten or max blend mode. Additional details posted with the
image.

I never knew that extended nebulosity surrounded the main dumbbell until I found it in one of my narrowbands a couple of weeks ago.

Good Job, Mike.
