Sneaky Serpent or Scary Face? Sh2-54

Il serpente o la faccia?

A large HII region in the constellation Serpens, part of the same complex of nebulosity that includes the Eagle and Omega nebulas houses an interesting little fellow that depending on its orientation, has been observed to resemble a snake peeking out of a 'hole' in the ground; or a flame haired scary face Either way, I dig it!

Rev 1 is the full field view and rev 2 is the rotated and cropped 'face'.

SHO, PIP functions, same routine with the Esprit 120 / 294mm / opto 7nm / eq6r combo

Captured over five nights between 23 and 27 July.
