The Monkey Head Nebula NGC 2174. January 2015

Never done this one before for some reason, and it's quite bright up there in Orion. And it does look remarkably like a monkey head, it has to be said. This is 25 x 300 sec subs. Looks better in hubble, and I'll do that one day :)

 

If we get many more clear nights I'm going to run out of targets. Not complaining of course! :)
