Hi All,

This is my interpretation of this often imaged field. Three ICs in this one - 405, 410 and 417. I went deep so I lost some star color - can't win them all I guess smile.

STL11K - FSQ - Astronomik HaRGB - 7.7 hours exposure.

Additional info plus a close-up of IC405 on my website:

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Best,

Jose

Jose,
Very, very impressive image - Congrats! I see you also got very good color on the reflection component of IC405. Nice job combining the HA and RGBs.
