The Witch Head because I've never see it imaged. Look very much like it's name....who would have thought.

Witch Head! As usual, all the work was great but this is the finest view of ic2118 I've seen. Thank you all.

With top marks for all entries (especially Anto for a beautiful Mars) I gave it in the end to Stephen and the Witch Head. Awesome detail and contrast and I like the pretty blue hue. :P

Good job all, I am jealous all over again.

Fixed yearning for that which I'm denied
Your light, your dark, your wonder..."

Like most comments here, it was down to the witch head or mars image for me. Love the way the witch head jumps off the screen, but the amount of detail in the mars image is phenomenal for a ground based "amateur" image. Anto's mars got my vote.
