I did an Ha / LRGB capture and process of the Soul Nebula. Its a beautiful area of the sky, and I have been doing some individual closer in images than the traditional Heart and Soul pair. Image and details are here:

Nicely done, Jim! Great balance of H-alpha detail and RGB colors!

Technical nit-pick: when I click on the "(2400 x 1800)" link it takes me to an image of IC1805. Very nice shot of that, too, BTW.
