Pickering's Triangle - added starless version (I'm a believer, Fred!)

Ha! The starless version looks like a scene from Jaws or something.... Blood in the water.

"Your gonna need a bigger boat" Nice Rick!

Thanks, Rod! BTW, that's precisely what someone said to me recently when bemoaning how little of the IC5148 halo I had after collecting 53.5 hours of OIII

Good design for a bathroom tile.

Excellent idea, Marc!

hehe, most excellent Rick!. Starless certainly shows structure detail without distraction. Star removal can be very difficult, artifacts are hard to avoid. Its a good effort and worth doing for this object.

Wow Rick that's really beautiful, congrats

Thanks, Fred. I think I lost a little of the sharpness in the neb as well. Definitely some more research to do there...

Thanks, Dave. Have you been to the JJJNettie school of Pareidolia

Wonderful image Rick!

Never seen this part of the veil before, very dramatic structure.

Cheers,

Justin.

Thanks, Justin!

Starless looks freaky.
