NGC 6822, Barnard's Galaxy
I worked this one pretty hard using all the techniques I could think of to bring out the galaxy and to bring up the Ha regions a bit more. I may have worked this data as hard as I could without getting more to add to it. Now I wish I had gotten some Ha data to add to the mix.
