I had thought this would be the part between M42 and the Running Man; well at least I had hoped it would be. Still a nice section fo the nebula.

Yes its a 90% res crop of a small section at the bottom right of the main nebula. You can see where it came from in this 40% size image (1.2meg): http://www.pbase.com/strongmanmike20...72333/original
