That's a nice PACMAN.
Since it's also in your AVATAR, I have to assume you love this nebula!

Actually the AVATAR was just something I was just trying out, I will find something more appropriate someday. The Pacman nebula was my last image that I shot and worked up. I wanted to see how the image upload procedure for this forum worked and to get some comments on the progress that I am making on using a mono camera.
