About this image

6 hours of narrowband data on the Jellyfish nebula (IC443) over 2 nights (4th and 18th March). The image has been processed in PI and rendered in the SHO pallette. This is still one of my favourite narrowband targets with the bright magnitude 3.3 star Propus adding to the charm of this DSO
