The Vela Remnant
The spectacular Vela Supernova Remnant, in HOO with a touch of S. Wow, I am loving working with this beautiful narrowband data. Up until now most of my astrophotography has been in LRGB, but with narrowband, there are so many more options, and the freedom to choose a palette that really showcases the features of your chosen object is something I am really enjoying.
