Monkey Head

I took this image of NGC2174 the Monkey Head at Fort Griffin SHS in Texas at the last new moon.

14 x 15 minutes (210 minutes)
Atik 383L+ OSC with a Baader UV-IR filter
Orion 110ED, CI-700 mount guided with a 80mm f4, SSAG and PHD
Captured and processed with AstroArt 4

This was the first night out with this setup. I am having fun with the OSC camera.

John,
A very fine image. The OSC's RGB image catches that reflection part on the right side of your image. It's hard to get this with an Ha for luminance.
