A Planetary in Corvus

This is an image of NGC4361 which is located in Corvus at a distance of 3350 light years. It reminds me of a Shuriken throwing star and it is certainly a lovely looking planetary.

The image contains 25.5 hours of data with the bulk of it being in the narrow band. I also collected luminance and RGB for the stars and the background galaxies. More imaging time would no doubt provide greater depth to the image but it is now starting to set for the year.

Hope you enjoy the view.
