Virgo Cluster of Galaxies
At the same nigh, than previous Sharpless target, I shot this beautiful Galaxy Cluster in Virgo. I needed a data for calibrating my QHY9 and Canon 200mm EF f1.8 optics orthogonality. I didn't wait much about image, since 200mm lens has litle bit too wide for galaxys. After all, it turned to be a nice image, so I post it here too.

Two ways to end a life in HST-palette
In this rare image two Stars has ended they lifes. Right one is an old, very dim and large, Planetary Nebula and the Left one is an extremely dim Supernova remnant.
The North is Up and the field of view is about 5,5 degrees horizontaly.
I have seen very few images of eather of them, and never seen it as a three colour narrow band.
Objects in the image are from the Sharples Catalog.
Upper one is Sh2-216 and the lower one Sh2-221.
There is other smaler Sh2-objects there, Sh2-217 and Sh2-219,
they are located in Auriga.
Natural color composition, mixed from H-a, O-III and S-II channels.
Since I haven't seen this ever in NB colors, I added an image about content of the channels.
A special technique is used to dig out a very faint information.
