Description

I have been gathering some data on this emission nebula in Cepheus in Dec & Jan.  The data includes 9h28 of 6nmHA data captured on an OSC (hence the redness).  I was looking at this, and there's a clear cow's head in there!  To me this is much more of a Cow Nebula than the other one by that name in Cepheus?

(This image has just had ABE & then GHS w some cropping to take away the edges - nothing more done to it).
