This target is not seen often in amateur photographs, perhaps because it is very faint. I shot this planetary nebula on two nights in January from my remote-controlled observatory in Finland.

Thank you Paul. I used Starnet to remove the stars from narrowband channels and then I combined stretched starless bicolor image with stretched RGB image using Pixinsights pixelmath. This seems to give more control over faint details and color balance.
