I've always meant to give this region a good work over.
Unfortunately it didn't happen tonight.

This is just 1hr and 15min of exposure time. But I'm still happy with how it turned out. There was plenty of noise that had to be smoothed out and I don't know if I've pushed the colour a tad too much.

Looks great! Maybe just a touch red on my monitor, but very slight.

JJJ, you've moved on from the whole foot to just the toes now? It's a lovely nebula and you've done a great job with limited data!

Cheers,
Rick.

LOL It inspired me to dig out that old data and I've just finished reprocessing it. It's surprising how our skills develop over time.
