Description

IC2169 is an interesting area dominated by dust and a large faint reflection nebula. It is located quite near the Cone nebula. I began acquiring RGBL as 120 sec subframes in late September and this is the off and on result as of Nov 20. I used the SW120 Esprit at F/5.2 and is a challenging object for many reasons.
