Description

I have seen some great images of this target, here is my reedition of the Tadpoles Nebula, I don't think it turned out too badly.  This is 2 nights of imaging using Ha, Su & OIII filters gathering around 7 hours of data.  The images were stacked and combined with APP using HSO 2 template and then touched up in PS.

NASA Excerpt:  C 410 is about 12,000 light-years away. The cloud of glowing gas is over 100 light-years across and created from stellar winds and radiation from an open star cluster (NGC 1893).  Formed in the interstellar cloud around 4 million years ago, bright newly formed cluster stars are seen all around the star-forming nebula. Notable near the image center are two relatively dense streamers of material trailing away from the nebula's central regions. Potentially sites of ongoing star formation in IC 410, these cosmic tadpole shapes are about 10 light-years long.

Title: Revised SHO image

Description: Re-worked my SHO image as the first was way too green. I think this looks a little better.
