Fun out under the stars. NGC 1499 was positioned nicely from my backyard... So why not image this beauty again?

Great image and processing Mike.  I like the fine details, nebula colors and sharp colored stars.  Multi-night imaging is definitely the way to go to get fine details.

Thanks Jim! No doubt...The more data the easier it is to process.
