Default Ngc 6914

What with all the clouds I've been having and now a full moon I'm catching up on my image processing. This is the reflection nebula NGC6914 that's lost in a much larger HII region some catalogs list at NGC 6914. Either it is the northern most blue reflection nebula or it is a lot more than the entire field of view. So take your pick.

14" LX200R, L=10x10', RGB=2x10', STL-11000XM, Paramount ME. Sorry I don't have this one anyplace on the net as yet so this is a half size image to meet bandwidth limits. Still it cames pretty close to the full size image for a change.

I'll be out of town for a few days and will catch up with responses when I get back

Rick
