This is by far one of my favorite DSO.
This was taken last night under a blazing full moon.

Tak FSQ106 on an EM200 Temma 2 goto mount
8 x 15 minutes with an Ha filter
SBIG 2000XM with a CFW8 with new Kodak chip
Maxim 4.0
Photoshop CS
Neat Image

Comments are always welcome.
Thanks

Thanks Steve. I did reduce the image by 25%. I chopped it down a bit more. Tanks for your input.

Very nice image Brian!
In order to capture this object you need a very large chip & fov, as I understand she is pretty but huge! 8)
