I've been waiting for the clouds to clear by reprocessing some old data. Here is IC2177 in SHO palette redone.

Superb work Tom. I really envy that scope and camera combo. It produces spectacular images... in your capable hands, that is.

That's a real beauty Tom.

Lots of details in the main nebula but my eyes keep being pulled to the upper center of the image where the simicircular structure is in the OIII area. looks like some kind of shockwave or something? Pretty cool!
