      NGC 6729 LRGB

      Here's a remake of NGC 6729 using Adam Block's blending techniques, John Murphy's NSG script, and Russ Croman's Color Corrected HDRMT script.

      NGC 6729 is a reflection nebula in the constellation Corona Australis and is one of the closer star-forming regions of the galaxy at a distance of 130 pc (Wikipedia).

      This is a bit over 21 hours of exposure time by the CHI-1 scope in Chile.

      Hope ya like it!
