IC2177, a late Seagull

Hi all, I just posted a picture of the Seagull Nebula, an object that I have been chasing for a while. It is a composition which integrates signal from all six filters that I mounted on my CCD, Ha-OIII-LRGB

Seagul Nebula

Unfortunately, I had to discharge most of the data taken through the blue channel (due to passing high-clouds), however exposure particularly deep in L and Ha produced an image with relatively little noise that I could stretch to bring out different shades often not so visible in other images of the area.

As usual vision at full resolution (last icon at bottom right) is recommended to show different details in the dust and various nebulae. A very nice area is at the bottom right, showing several particular items and a lovely color range.

Comments and criticism welcome
