I have been collecting data on this object for several months out at Swan Reach Imaging. I managed to pick up near 20 hours of useful data.
Imaging was done with an FSQ85 and ZWO 2600MC. I know there is a lot of faint Ha in this area too but have not collected any at this point in time. Now it is setting for the year I will wait until next apparition to collect the Ha data.
I have tried to be as faithful and not force any colour that is not there. Most of the outer areas of the Doodad appear to be clear nebulosity or at best similar to IFN and not dark at all.
