There are actually 2 nebula here that are far apart, the loopy one is NGC3576 and the other is much further distant.

Taken at my dark site observatory over the weekend. TEC180mm fluorite F7, FLI Microline 8300, Astronomik LRGB and Astrodon 5nm Ha filters.

HaLRGB 60 60 30 20 30.

Nice shot. I think it is interesting that the two appear to be slight different shades on my monitor. Must imply that something different is going on in each one. (Unless that was some processing trick?)
