SH2-260
(Sharpless 260
)
SH2-260 is very faint, and you need a very long exposure to pick up the nebula around it. This nebula picks up fairly well but still needs a fair amount of time. Because of the long exposure needed, you need to take a bit more color. The nebula picked up very well in Hydrogen-Alpha, and blending that channel with the red and blue channels of the RGB will help. I tried an OIII image, but nothing picked up.
