Believe it or not, I didn’t use any filters in these Pelican Nebula images with the ZWO ASI2600mc-pro and the Hyperstar. I extracted each channel from the one shot color camera image and combined the channels to mimic the HST palette.
To the rear of the eye is Herbig-Haro 555 which is a jet of matter and partially ionized gas ejected by newborn stars. I cropped it heavily in the second set of images to show it better.
