Eskimo nebula (NGC2392): A two hour integration of the Eskimo nebula (also known as the Clown or Lion nebula) taken over two separate nights using SHO filters with an ASI 533MM pro camera and electronic filter wheel set attached to a Sky-Watcher Esprit 80ED triplet refractor. The tiny pale blue planetary nebula can be seen centre frame among the stars of Gemini and is some 6,500 light years away from Earth. A medium and tight crop was made to show the small planetary nebula in more detail.
