Nebula IC 1805 (Heart) & IC 1848 (Soul) - 05 September 2008

These two nebulas are known as double nebula. The shape of heard gave a name to larger one. The other is called Soul.

I spent two perfect nights with capturing of these faint nebulaes. After that I spent many hour with processing of pictures. I hope you like it. If so (or not), leave some message about it at bottom of this page.
