Description

Hubble images taught us more about this interesting, well-recognized nebula. Here I have captured a bit of detail beyond what I have usually seen from smaller scopes using my 14.5" f4.3 Zambuto mirror Starmaster dobsonian with Skycommander goto/tracking. Taken as RAW in Canon T3i, and some processing with Digital Photo Professional.
