another Pacman - modded DSLR

[glowingturnip]

So here's the last of my summer's crop of data.  I need to get out there again now and take some new stuff !

28x 300s lights at ISO1600, darks flats and bias, equipment as per sig, modded DSLR at prime focus, Pixinsight.

My wife surprised me by saying that it looks like a pacman, without her knowing the name of the nebula.  Personally I think it looks more like an angler fish.

The Pacman Nebula (NGC 281) is an H II region in the constellation of Cassiopeia and part of the Perseus Spiral Arm. It includes the open cluster IC 1590, the multiple star HD 5005, and several Bok globules.

The multiple star consists of an 8th-magnitude primary with four companions at distances between 1.4 and 15.7 seconds of arc.

Hope you enjoy, comments and cc welcome.

Stuart,

a very nice image indeed, nicely processed, good colour balance. I can see what you mean about the Angler fish-- the band of stars on the top right being the lure.
