Description

I struggled to find an easy path when processing this quite delicate subject finding the star field (beautiful as it is) over-powering the faint and pinkish nebulous regions, although the blue reflection nebula faired much better. Steve and I did find mixed sky conditions during capture and I do wonder with better seeing if we would have managed to pick out more discernible structure.

There is a faint redish tint to the background sky and I hazard that there is some faint gas in and around the nebula and across the FOV which I have left in judging it to be real (though not 100% sure).

Thanks for looking and C&Cs always welcome.
