Default IC1805 The Heart Nebula Complex HA+LLRGB

Hi All,

Here is my latest shot of IC 1805 The Heart Nebula Complex.

It represents 5.5 hours of imaging over 3 nights, due to high clouds interfering each night.

Tak FSQ106 refractor, field flattener, and STL11000 CCD, and 4nm H-Alpha Filter (3 hours) + (2.5 hours) Astronomics LRGB filters.
spent a lot of time processing this one, but came out pretty cool!

Lots of faint nebulosity in the surrounding area too!

Just in time for Valentines Day!

Since I can only post a small jpg on this forum,

here is a link to a little higher res shot(~400K)
