Description

Here's a beautiful blue reflection nebula called IC 2169 in Monoceros (The Unicorn). It is not often imaged and it is very faint with wisps of dark dust. This was a total of 17 hours of exposure using LRGB filters taken back in late February and early March this year from Spain with this setup.
