I'm not really sure tbh

#

#

If I invert it and stretch the piss out of it.. I don't really see much. Maybe a trick of that red star?

#

I don't really see anything in the individual channels either. Kinda wierd

most likely just color splotches since there's green around it too, however there is a lot of Ha around the double cluster, @proper hemlock if you have any narrowband filters feel free to come back to this target in Ha
