Baby steps on the Monkey Head Nebula

[B4silio]

After working on collimation of my RC for a week, all under an ever stronger moon that started out just in front of it, I think I'm at the limit of what I have learned to do so far.

So here is NGC 2174/5, the Monkey Head Nebula in Narrowband

TS RC 8" + 0.67x reducer + ZWO ASI1600MM-Pro & Astronomik filters

11h for Hydrogen Alpha, 7h for Oxygen III and 3h for Sulphur II

That is a lovely image, nice gentle colours and good star colour range.
