NGC 1499 aka California Nebula in Ha. This is an emission nebula located in the constellation Perseus. Its name comes from its resemblance to the outline of the US State of California.

John, is this OSC with an Ha filter.  I can see some colour in the stars. 

Lovely result by the way.

Very nice John!  Difficult to decide between both versions as equally aesthetically pleasing.  Good work.
