M57 The Ring Nebula Here is my take on the Ring nebula. Taken at Dark Sky New Mexico at " Stellar Winds Observatory" over the last 3 months or so. With over 60 hours of exposure using a 24" telescope, notice the faint outer shells in O3 and HA. If you go here https://www.hansonastronomy.com/m57-the-ring-nebula
you can see the negatives of HA and O3 as well as a few versions of this Image.
Thanks for looking,

Mark Hanson
