Description

I had some clear sky last night but winds up to 26 mph, I decided to image anyway and had some success.  Last night was the first time I imaged IC2169 / IC447 et al.

 IC2169, IC2167 is  Located in the Constellation Monoceros.  It isn’t as popular as its neighbor the cone nebula.  It is full of dark nebula (LDN1605 LDN1606 and LDN1607) and of course the blue reflection nebulas scattered about the area. It is approximately 2500 light years from earth.

So this is my first go at it and I am thinking of imaging again.
