Elephant's Trunk Nebula in IC 1396

http://jeffjastro.com
Hi all :)  Here is the Elephant's Trunk Nebula in IC 1396 - I have two versions (one mono) at the link, below. I was able to get two objects during this session in October.  I have also since that time been able to get out in the backyard again earlier this month.  I am working through all the data and will update here as always as I go :)
