This is a collection of four faint emission nebulae from the Sharpless catalog. Includes 15 hours of Ha and 11 hours of SII captured with the SV90T and ST-10XME.

From left to right: SH2-232, SH2-235, SH2-231 and the little baby all the way to the right is SH2-233.

That's beautiful, Phil! I was wondering why it was so red until I realized the data types captured. How did you map your colors?
