Description

I see a strange creature indeed - part owl, part orangutan, and part triceratops....in skeletal ghost form. It looks like the lion has company. I am fascinated by this nebula. I love the dark structures and reddish dust. I found this data very difficult to process. the dynamic range in the nebula is large, and there are many stars. The stars in the core always give me trouble. I started from scratch with older data and added some from two different scopes (FSQ 106 and TOA 130).
