NGC 281 (pacman nebula)

Here's another one hot off the press from Arizona, the emission nebula NGC 281 which is commonly known as the pacman nebula although I think it more resembles some deep sea angler fish. In any case it's a very interesting object with tons of fine detail and I'm looking forward to doing some colour when the moon goes away. Of course it would look great in narrowband but this camera doesn't have any narrowband filters.

Cheers

Steve
