Description

NGC2245 / NGC2247 are a nice pair of reflection nebula sitting in Monoceros not far from their more famous nebula neighbors: Cone Nebula and Fox Fur Nebula. Lots going on in this area with reflection, emission, and dark nebula throughout. As a result, I struggled a bit with gradient removal, but got it thanks to some tips on how to tackle this.
