That's it Bert. Not many realise that they have indeed imaged it, or often pass it by for the brighter (near daylight) M42. Well done.

Thanks Jase
It is faint in NB SII. The data was combined in MaximDL as median to reduce cosmic ray images. The actual target is slightly lower right of the "Waterfall" -H-H 24. When this project is finished it should be LHaSIISII as imaged by the ESO, I can't find a e-image at the moment. As more data is gathered it should become more clear.
