NGC1999 (Keyhole Nebula)

I started a long series of images of the Keyhole Nebula, but the clouds rolled in before I got very many individual 10-minute images. I summed a few 1- and 5--minute test luminance images plus a set of 3 each RGB to provide a hint of what's there. This really needs much longer exposure time. But I don't know when the next cloud-free day will come, so.... here is what I have so far.

Ron,
Another excellent image, makes one want to image it
Is that done with the C-14 and 1001 camrea?
Thank you

The Keyhole nebula???? Maybe I am showing my southern hemisphere bias, but doesn't that refer to NGC 3372?

Nice image though.
