APOD for Boxing Day

[Paramount]

Hi All
About 3 months ago I posted a narrowband image of "The Elephants Trunk Nebula" - IC 1396 in the HST palette. Well I had an early Christmas present yesterday when I received an email from one of the editors from APOD to tell me that it is going to be the featured picture for Boxing Day. As you can imagine I am over the moon. It really makes the long cold nights outside a small sacrifice to pay. I have posted the image below, thanks for looking (yet again!). Merry Christmas to all
Best wishes
Gordon
