Thank you Rick, it is a nice colourful PN for sure.

Thanks Ray, yes it has been the subject of a few studies due to its unusual morphology.

Thanks very much Mike. I remember your NB version now, very nice

I hope to get some higher resolution data some day when the seeing is better, it was unfortunatly very poor on those two nights and I only got around to process it now because I initially thought nothing much would come of it - but still a resonable image after all

Very nicely processed as usual, great colour balance.
Kind regards,

Thank you Steve, I do calibrate with flats and also use DBE in PixInsight to remove any residual gradients. It is usually a bit of an art...
There are nearly always some gradients present, so I can assure you that straight out of the camera my field is certainly not this flat

I 2was hoping for more detail, but am happy with the result given the circumstances. I like the dense star field too, it gives a nice ambience to the nebula.
