The processing the reflection nebula vdB 130 was captured using narrowband filters.
(Hydrogen-alpha – H-α 6 nm, Sulfur – SII 6 nm, Oxygen – OIII 5 nm)
Here you see a few hours of individual images, which are processed by joining in Hubble (Narrowband in Hubble Palette). Photos are only gently stretched (CurvesTransformation).
You can see the final product above.
