IC417

[astro mick]

Hi.

Often overlooked by its more famous neighbours IC417 is a small Nebulae,but still worth having a look at.

This is an RGB image of around 4hrs with with 90 mins of Ha added to enhance the Nebulae.I never try and stretch too much,as I like to think this is a more natural balance,and maybe as it would be seen if close up.Of course I maybe totally wrong in my thinking.

As usual calibrated with Bias and Flats.

That looks great exactly as it is Mick.  Of course there is no "correct" stretch!
