Swan Or Horse Shoe Or Omega nebula M17

The Narrow band does not show the swan but horse shoe is very evident in the shot. I have had to give up on this too many clouds and rain as well as the target going down earlier and earlier due to the delays.

The narrow band filters do show up the elements very well in this shot S Ha O. there is a lot of details in the shot for so few shots.
