NGC 1935 - "The Wacky Racers"

NGC 1835 in Narrowband.

These little nebulae are located in the Large Magellenic cloud. Often overshadowed by their more famous neighbour, the Tarantula Nebula.

Is it just me or do they remind you of the old cartoon show - "The Wacky Racers"? Crazy looking cute little guys anyway

This is a Ha OIII SII RGB combination image.
12 hrs exposure over three evenings - my most ambitious effort yet!
2 hrs each RGB in 10 min subs and 4 hrs Ha, 4hrs OIII and 2 hrs SII all in 15 min subs.

I used an interesting "tone Mapping" technique for this one from J-p Metsavainio. (Astro Anarchy) - pretty cool, it took forever to process but I am reasonably pleased with the result.

I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks for looking, feel free to comment, I'm still learning NB techniques.
