Hello All

SNR G082.2 or W63 in Cygnus - HaOO plus RGB

Supernova remnant G082.2+05.3/4 in Cygnus, also known as Westerhout 63 and CTB 88.   Very bright in Ha with beautiful filamentary detail but extremely faint in OIII although there's some hint of the shell in this image from light polluted London.   
Taken over August, September and October.  Two panels running North to South.  8hrs of Ha and 9hr 20min of OIII per panel.   Some 26hrs of OSC for both panels.
