Description

The Fish Head (IC 1795) is an emission nebula in a star-forming region in Cassiopeia, about 6,000 light-years away. It's an appendage of the Heart Nebula, but doesn't seem to get as much attention as a stand-alone object for imaging as other sections of the Heart (e.g., Melotte 15).

I'm really impressed with the Askar DNB filter - it really performed well under the full moon. The first set of data was captured when the moon was nearly 100% full, and (for some reason) that was my best set out of all 3 nights .
