A little Monkey :) (ngc 2174)

So this is the Monkey Head nebula in Ha.

Imaged with the asi 1600mm-c @-30C

64x 300sec, Gain 139, Offset 21

I'm gathering O3 as we speak, but liked the mono version too.

Pretty happy with it at the moment, but feel free to comment with tips or feedback

I like it. You have scrupulously not clipped the blacks so we can see that this nebula does not just burst out of nowhere, as some images suggest, but has subtle outlying hints of gas around it.

Nice work - I prefer this target in Ha anyway so work for me
