The Lion Nebula (Sh2-132) in Hubble Palette (SHO)

[Chris Willocks]

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to share my latest image; which is a narrowband, Hubble palette (SHO) composite of the Lion Nebula (Sh2-132) in Cepheus.

I acquired this image using my Takahashi FSQ-85EDX, EQ6-R Pro mount and Atik 383L. Guiding was done using an Altair GPCAM2 AR0130 mono camera and TS Optics 2" off-axis guider.

The total exposure time was around 14 hours and processing was carried out in PixInsight, Photoshop and Lightroom.

More details about the image can be found here: https://astrob.in/zw2517/0/.

Thanks for looking. Any feedback would be welcomed.

Lovely image with clear colours. Well processed.

Really like that, lovely star colours too

This is an extremely difficult image to process I have found.   You have done very well, better than my attempt.

If you can find a way to do it, this would benefit from some star reduction.

Very beautiful image. I can see why it's called the Lion Nebula!
