I've been trying to image this one for a year but seemed to get thwarted by
weather too many times.

Finally a break and I got the image.

Tak BRC250, Apogee U16M camera, Baader filters.

LRGB 100 50 50 50

That's a beauty Greg!

Nice one Greg. I like the close up view of this image. Many times this is shot in a wider field. This view shows great detail.
