'Sing to the Moon and the stars will shine'

This image was one of two made on the same night in January. The full Moon hindered and it was necessary to split the evening into two, first capturing this one and then moving on to the Cone Nebula once the target had dropped too low and disappeared behind neighbouring houses.

This image was made on the same night as the Bubble Nebula above. The narrowband normalisation script in PixInsight has produced some interesting and, in my view, rather interesting colours. The image is somewhat noisy owing to the short integration time and will definitely repay some additional sky time if the weather allows before it starts to drop too low as the season progresses.
