NGC 2174 aka The Monkey Head Nebula, is located in the region east of the Orion constellation.
It is thought to be located about 6,400 light-years away from Earth.
This image was taken on this January 21, 2022. The skies were rather mucky which caused the stars to bloat.
The image is a stack of 23 four minute images at ISO 3200 with a modded Canon T3i body on an 8" LX200GPS Meade telescope with a .63 focal reducer.
