4-inch Takahashi FSQ 106 apochromatic refractor at f/5.3, SBIG ST-10XME CCD camera, H?RGB image. Phillips acquired eight 30-minute exposures through a Hydrogen-alpha (H-alpha) filter and combined them with three 10-minute red, three 10-minute green, and three 16-minute blue exposures. This image was processed with Maxim DL, Registar, and Photoshop, as were all others on this web page.
