We were very lucky to have a nice clear night to image, so I headed to my friend's Sheldon's house to image through a five inch Apo refractor from Explore Scientific owned by our good friend Scott Roberts. Sheldon and I thought that this nebula would be a good object to image with this instrument and an SBIG ST10 camera. We took seventy minutes of red and green and only thirty minutes of blue because of the mount stopping after the third sub in blue. The image was processed by Sean Walker, our friend who is one of the best people in the art of astro image processing. This collaboration has created this image. It again demonstrates how beautiful the night sky is.
