I thought some of the objects I had imaged over the years presented more problems than others but this one takes the cake. This object for anyone who has never imaged it; this sucker is faint.
I have spent 5 or so sessions trying to capture data and now at 9.83 hours, just one 10 minute sub short of 10 hours, I have run short of time left for this season. If I am lucky I will pick up a few more subs early next lunar cycle (this new moon period is now going to be clouded out

), but I think I will need to wait until next apparition.
The image still has noise present and I have used about as much smoothing as I am comfortable with. What I like about this image is that there is lots of striations in the gas clouds. There are also a few small faint fuzzies to find in an around the clouds. If only I could collect another 10 hours soon.
Details of the image can be seen under the image.
