The Running Man Nebula NGC 1977, located in the constellation of Orion, is so named because it looks like a man running in the midst of the cloud of gas. It is a reflection nebula that does not emit any visible light of its own. What we see is the dust illuminated by the light from nearby stars, like the fog around a street lamp.

This past weekend the skies actually cleared and we had decent night of observing so I took some images of the Orion Nebula
I took 10 2 minute exposures and 10 3 second exposures stacked them and 5 2 minute dark frames in Deep Sky Stacker.
This is a composite of the two different exposures to show the outer arms of the nebula and the inner detail.
Taken with the ASI1600MC camera attached to a 120mm Refactor.

The Running Man Nebula in Orion. Taken with a QSI-683 through a Vixen VMC200L telescope reduced to F7. This image consists of a stack of 60 1-minute subs.
A test with my Helios 44m-4 in severe conditions: severe light pollution (inside the city), clouds, high ISO (maximun for Fuji X-E1 in raw), short exposure (only 2 seconds) and aperture f/5.6 (for avoid lens aberration).
The lens was cleaned but two elements have problems in the coating.
The result was satisfatory.
The orange color in the clouds is due the light pollution.
Colors of the nebula and brighter stars could to appear.
Even in tiny stars we can see the diferent colors (orange and blue).*
* Note: In some astrophoto images in the internet the tiny stars don't have color (appear only white).
Probably the real colors were lost in the post-processing due the extreme increase in the brighter part of the Milkway (the center).
Of course, in these conditions I was unable to bring Barnard's looping and Flame Nebula to the image.
Even Running Man Nebula isn't appear quite well.

I've been waiting for the conditions to be good enough to capture this for a few weeks now but I've managed to finally do it. Although the session was cut short due to some non forcasted clouds, which is always the way...

I tried using 80mm but in this focal lenght and this lens adapter, infinity focus is impossible .
So, I changed the zoom to 135mm (minimum focal lenght to have infinity focus or close to it).
Results:
A little bit of star trail in 2 seconds but acceptable.
In 4 seconds shutter speed the star trail is very evident.
Lens aberration in this aperture is acceptable, with no astigmatism and very little coma in the corners.
Running Man Nebula begin to appear but more exposure time or aperture is necessary for more details.
A good result considering short exposure and aperture f/5.6.

We captured the Running Man nebula (Sh2-279) together with M42, the Great Orion Nebula on February 22, 2021. Sh2-279 is an HII region and bright nebulae that includes a reflection nebulae located in the constellation Orion. It is the northernmost part of the asterism known as Orion's Sword, lying 0.6° north of the Orion Nebula. The reflection nebula embedded in Sh2-279 is popularly known as the Running Man Nebula. This nebula (Sh2-279) is ~1,500 light-years away and ~7.5 light years across.
This nebula comprises three NGC nebulae, NGC 1973, NGC 1975, and NGC 1977 that are divided by darker nebulous regions. It also includes the open cluster NGC 1981. The whole reflection nebula region is likely excited by the hot young star (YSO) called 42 Orionis or HD 37018 in NGC 1977, which appears as a 4.6 magnitude star some 3.8′ from the center of Sh2-279. Other massive stars include the yellow giant 45 Orionis and the variable KX Orionis.
We captured our image using a Stellarvue Access 80mm refractor fitted with a Stellarvue Field flattener and a dual NB (Narrow Band) filter for capturing deep red H-Alpha and blue/green OIII emissions. Normally, this primarily reflection nebula is captured using broadband (RGB) filters, but here wanted to bring out Narrow Band nebulae hidden within.
We captured the Running Man nebula as a part of our Great Orion nebula image and then cropped the image to get the above image.
The imaging camera was an H-Alpha modded Nikon D5300 at ISO 1600,. Exposure details - f7 and a total exposure time of 207 min (103x 2.01 min). We separated the mono HA and mono OIII files in APP (Astro Pixel Processor), reduced gradients in each mono file and then recombined them in APP and post-processed in StarTools to get this image. Enjoy!
M42 and M43 at center with the Running Man nebula in the bottom right. This is an average of 7 exposures of 500 sec each taken the night of Oct 13 2012, in the Los Gatos mountains (PAS dark site). Images acquired with Orion Starshoot Pro Color (v1) camera, on Pentax 105EDHF Petzval refractor, with Baader MPCC coma reducer, Schneider UVIR filter. Scope biggyback guided with a Vixen A80SS using a Meade DSI for guide camera run by PHD. Telescopes mounted on Orion Atlas EQ/G mount. The initial images were cleaned of hot pixels and USB dropouts then converted to RGB color using personal software. These 7 images were then stacked in personal software using Median, then compressed with the Log(ArcSinh) and combined with 5thRoot functions. Final image processing was completed in Adobe CS5.

Most famous and brightest emission nebula, below Orion Belt in Orion constellation. It's about 1500 light years away and contains lot of newborn stars. On pictures taken from larger scopes (8" and larger) you can notice some parts in the middle, where distant star systems are forming. You can see here not only M42, which is the largest, upper part, but also M43 (little "," coma below) and Running Man Nebula (the blue one) on bottom.

The Great Nebula in Orion M42, is an immense, nearby starbirth region, is probably the most famous of all astronomical nebulas. Here, glowing gas surrounds hot young stars at the edge of an immense interstellar molecular cloud only 1500 light-years away. It can be found with the unaided eye near the easily identifiable belt of three stars in the popular constellation Orion. In addition to housing a bright open cluster of stars known as the Trapezium, the Orion Nebula contains many stellar nurseries. These nurseries contain much hydrogen gas, hot young stars, proplyds, and stellar jets spewing material at high speeds. The Orion Nebula spans about 40 light years and is located in the same spiral arm of our Galaxy as the Sun.
De Mairan’s Nebula (M43 or NGC1982) is a smaller part of the Orion Nebula (M42), and is separated from the main nebula by a large, dark dust lane.
Sh2-279 is a bright nebulae that includes a reflection nebula located in the constellation Orion. It is the northernmost part of the asterism known as Orion's Sword, The reflection nebula embedded in Sh2-279 is popularly known as the Running Man Nebula.
Sh2-279 comprises three NGC nebulae, NGC 1973, NGC 1975, and NGC 1977 that are divided by darker nebulous regions. It also includes the open cluster NGC 1981. The designation NGC 1977 is used in various sources for the reflection area around 42 Orionis (the south-east portion of the reflection nebula), for the entire reflection nebula (including NGC 1973 and NGC 1975), or for the whole nebula complex.

M42 - Orion Nebula & Running Man (HDR)
"The Orion Nebula (also known as Messier 42, M42, or NGC 1976) is a diffuse nebula situated in the Milky Way, being south of Orion's Belt in the constellation of Orion. It is one of the brightest nebulae, and is visible to the naked eye in the night sky. M42 is located at a distance of 1,344 ± 20 light years and is the closest region of massive star formation to Earth. The M42 nebula is estimated to be 24 light years across. It has a mass of about 2000 times the mass of the Sun. Older texts frequently refer to the Orion Nebula as the Great Nebula in Orion or the Great Orion Nebula.
The Orion Nebula is one of the most scrutinized and photographed objects in the night sky, and is among the most intensely studied celestial features. The nebula has revealed much about the process of how stars and planetary systems are formed from collapsing clouds of gas and dust. Astronomers have directly observed protoplanetary disks, brown dwarfs, intense and turbulent motions of the gas, and the photo-ionizing effects of massive nearby stars in the nebula.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NGC 1973/5/7 is a reflection nebula 1/2 degree northeast of the Orion Nebula. The three NGC objects are divided by darker regions. It is also called The Running Man Nebula and Sharpless Catalog 279.
This object was named 'The Running Man Nebula' by Texas Astronomical Society member Jason Ware. Approximately 20 years ago his down stairs neighbor looked at the object and said it looked like a running man. He brought this up a TAS club meeting and the name stuck. Now widely accepted as 'The Running Man'."

Kind of looks like a "Cartoon Super Hero Phoenix"...
Decent weather, a new mount, and the advise to use ASPA routine...
OK, it'll never fool anyone for being a Hubble image.
But this image of the Great Orion Nebula contains a surprising amount of detail, especially for the modest sized telescope. It even contains a bit of the dimmer Running Man Nebula above it.
