Description

Interesting Object, NGC 226 is a variable nebula illuminated by R Mon and it seems this kind of nebula are quite sparse. Actually, I wasn’t aware this classification even existed until recently ^^

Planning of revisiting the object next season to see how variable it really is.

Concerning the Image, I think it may be a bit over-processed and the 120 sec. where a bit short, but I give it a go for now.

Constructive criticism is always welcome. 😊
