Description

The region around IC443 and IC444, concentrating on the extended emission from the latter. I like how the complex dark lanes in IC444 look like space spiders from the Babylon 5 TV show. Processing in Maxim with log and gamma stretches to better bring out the weak nebulosity. Mild unsharp mask.
