NGC 2174 - The Monkey Head Nebula

Without mount for three months now and with constant bad weather, I've been reprocessing old photos, trying to find new framings for "new photos". This Monkey Head Nebula is an example of such - never happy with the first photo, I think this new approach is definitely an improvement... 😊

 

Shot at Barcarena, Portugal in January 2022.
