Description

I imaged this from my scope setup in Rodeo, NM. I wanted to get something unique for my wife for Valentine's Day and I stumbled across this nebula and thought it would be perfect. Unfortunately for me, I decided to try and image this in the winter when it is pretty low in the sky. Even with 10 minute exposures in Ha and Oiii, I wasn't sure I actually imaged anything until I registered and stacked all the exposures. I really need to shoot this target again when it is a little higher up in the sky so I can get more of the IFN floating around.
