California nebula (Ha) 3H39minredo
Ignore the post from yesterday, this is what I meant to post...
I added more Ha data to this last night AND figured how to properly align the HaR data to the RGB data so that the stars align and I don't get "blobs" for stars.

Excellent shot! With this field of stars you can 'see' floating NGC1499 in space.
