NGC 3324 is an open cluster in the southern constellation Carina, located northwest of the Carina Nebula (NGC 3372)[4][5] at a distance of 7,560 ly (2,317 pc) from Earth.[2] It is closely associated with the emission nebula IC 2599.

This was captured from my suburban backyard observatory. It is the result of 70 x 2 minute exposures using the QHY 268C cooled colour camera through and Esprit 127mm refractor.

Stacked and processed with DeepSkyStacker, PixInsight and Affinity Photo.
Note that the stars lack the deep colours as I was using an extreme narrowband filter to defeat the bright city lights and the bright moon. The L-Extreme filter cancels out a lot of the starlight while capturing the Oxygen and Hydrogen in bright nebula. The colours come from processing the image using HOO (Hydrogen,Oxygen,Oxygen) which extracts colour using similar to those used for Hubble images.
