vdb149/150 & LDN1235 "The Hoodie Nebula"

Hi

I started this a few weeks ago and managed to shoot 15x10 minutes each for RGB. It was clear again last night so I shot 24x10 minutes for luminance just finishing before the half moon got up too high. The dark nebula and dust which my neighbour said looks like a "Hoodie" was very faint and difficult to process out (not helped by the light pollution where I live but luckily the object is high at this time of year).

It was taken with a Takahashi FSQ106ED at f5 and FLI ML8300 on a Paramount ME auto guided by a Lodestar and OAG using dithering. This is certainly a colourful area of sky with stars of varying colour and the blue reflection nebula.

Thanks for looking
