A Hellish Bat and Trunk

[tomato]

Firstly apologies for the terrible framing, my other scope on the rig was pointing at the Bat with a much smaller FOV, I couldn't do much about  cutting the Elephant's Trunk region in half on this scope. This is 120 mins OIII and 90 mins Ha with a SY135/G2-8300 CCD.

I still can't get my head around NB processing, I have again allowed the artist (such as it is) in me take over and I took a liking to this hellish red/orange palette, to me it looks like Mordor from The Lord of the Rings.  Atmospheric, but not very scientific.

I really like it, let the artist in you loose!

Lovely image with a cool looking palette! Feels very halloween 🎃 Would be great to see how the elephants trunk would look with this palette if it were in frame.
