   This is only part of NGC 1499 as the whole nebula won't fit in the field of view. Also called the California Nebula, I guess this would be Santa Barbara.
   This is the longest shot taken so far with the 16" reflector, 676x15s exposures. The nebula is at a good location in the sky for my latitude resulting in very little field rotation.
