Description

IC 2149 is a very small and rarely imaged planetary Nebula in the constellation of Auriga.

It has been imaged by my friend S. Brunier at C2PU observatory with the 1m RC. He used his Nikon 810 A DSLR and I processed the images. 100 x 20 sec and 500 x 1sec. The 1 second serie brings a lot of details.

I have not been able to find many detailed version of this object on tne internet ln vislble light. Even among professional data. This one might be one of the best images ever taken of it. Humbly.

EDIT : Thanks to Gary Imm remark, new version C enhanced the ansae. Didn't know this object has ansae

Hope you like it.
