Fetus nebula, NGC 7008

I took this shot with the Celestron 9.25 Edge and 0.7 reducer. ASI 1600 mm. 40 - 60 sec subs for each color filter. I did not do luminance subs. The shot is cropped considerably. Bortle 7

Amazing work Chuck. That's a new one for me. I really like the shape of it, and I can understand it's name. It must be a really small object by the look of it's size compared to the stars. So it's one I couldn't capture with my current gear.

Thanks Jim, it's about the same size as the ring.

Chuck,

Nice! These small objects are fascinating. I will have to get my Edge 9.25 on this someday!
