Image Description and Details : IC 1795 (Fish head), is a diffuse nebula identifiable in the constellation of Cassiopeia, towards the border with the Giraffe. It is part of an extensive nebular complex that is the site of very active star formation which includes the areas W4 (Heart Nebula) and W3 (IC 1795 and NGC 896).
For the acquisition of the signal, very narrow band filters (3nm) were used in order to create the Hubble palette which associates HII, OIII and SII to the G, B and R channels.
A total of 21 hours of exposure were required, carried out in the Valle degli Ulivi (Taranto-Italy) at 80m a.s.l.

Image Description and Details : The Fish head Nebula (IC1795) is a star forming region in Casseopeia, and part of the Heart Nebula Complex. Often seen as an appendage in wide field shots, close up it has some fascinating dust lanes, back lighting and reflection as well as emission components.
Its relatively close to Earth at 6000 light years. This image is shot in SHO ( Hubble) Palette and is full frame ( no crop) at 2650mm Focal length.

I shot this over 4 nights about two weeks ago on my Planewave CDK14 out in the New Mexico desert.

This was my first test of 15 min unguided sub shooting on the Planewave mounted on an L-350 mount. I was able to use about 80% of all subs.

IC 1795 - The Fish Head nebula

IC 1795 is an area of gas and dust and also a star forming region in the northern constellation Cassiopeia.
IC 1795 is an extension of the larger Heart nebula or IC 1805.

The brightest part of the nebula has the designation NGC 896 in the New General Catalogue. It is classified separately because it was the first part of IC 1805 to be discovered.
