I have seen this referred to as the 'Egg'. Not sure if it does have a common name.
I think it turned out reasonably well.

That's a very good narrowband shot of NGC 6164 Ben, well done :thumbsup: I recon it is a magic egg, with a magic aura, being fought over by the two Fighting Dragons nearby :D

A beautiful rendition.
I wonder though if there is any sharpness that can be developed in the egg.

Thanks! I have also seen the aura described as 'petals'.
Good point. I might give that a go today.

So, I decided to stop fluffing around and I now have PixIngight.
Got the hang of basic usage. Now to sort out the nuances.
I have had another go at NGC6164.

Nice work, Ben. You got quite a lot of the faint Oiii shell.
