The Angel NGC 2170: NGC 2170: Still Life with Reflecting Dust in Monoceros

[Harel_Boren]

Hi guys,

8.5 hours from the Negev Desert yielded the angel floating among clouds of dust.

A challenge to process such that the delicate arms of the angel come through, along with the magenta-red flare and delicate clouds of brownish dust...
I'm finally happy with it - time to let if fly

Any comments are, as always, very welcome.

Cheers,
Harel

This object has been on my imaging list for a while. You've done a great rendition of it, Harel!

[Paul Haese]

Great colours and detail are nice. The haloes are a bit distracting though, is this a product of the RH 200?

Great looking photo Harel.

I love the colours and detail.

A new object for me.

This is a really nice area and you've really done it justice. Nicely processed and nice composition.
