Description

LRGB cropped.  A well-traveled satellite trail in the northern quadrant, horizontally, is still apparent if you look for it.  There were so many satellite trails across that one section that even with Median integration and low tolerance Linear Fit setting they were impossible to totally eliminate.  Also in the field of view some stray light from bright stars just outside the frame crept in on the edges and I tried to crop away the worst of that.  The main colorful nebula around NGC 2170 is also known as the Angel Nebula.
