Description

C46 or Hubbles Variable Nebula is a reflection nebula I thought worth a shot with my 127Mak when I captured the Christmas Tree last year. Its compactness and rather high surface brightness made it a prime target for the slow optics. With a good plan, the damn wind that night and a little fuckup by me I got that result ;-)
