Another Cocoon nebula (IC 5146)

[Yoddha]

Hello,

This Saturday managed to gather some photons before the Moon rise. Here is my rendition of the Cocoon nebula.

Equipment - MN190 + 550D + EM200, APT + PHD

Details - 13 x 7min + 1 x 6min = 1h 37min, no darks - only dithering

Hope you like it

That's terrific Ivo. Must try dithering the next time I'm out ..... which given the weather in the UK at the moment could be next year!

Fantastic the outer edges of the nebula is teasing out nicely some of the darker stuff (at least to my eye). Love the colour and contrast.

A lovely shot Ivo, I can definitely see faint darker regions!
