Default NGC 1955 in the LMC

This set of objects which include NGC 1955,68,74 and 91 are all listed as clusters or associations of stars in Simbad but they have an obvious H alpha component. At magnitudes 8.2-10.3 the clusters come up clearly enough but I will need to get more Ha data next year. As you can see I had to resort to more noise reduction than I would have liked but the clouds around NGC1955 for an interesting pattern so I thought it worth posting.

Kind regards
Matt
