‘Lion Nebula’, Sh2-132 in Cepheus

Astro-modded EOS 600D,12” Newtonian telescope
26 x 4-minute ISO 1600 auto-guided exposures.
Frames stacked in Deep Sky Stacker software. Result post-processed to increase contrast, reduce noise, adjust overall colour balance and reduce colour gradients caused by light pollution.
I also used Starnet++ to temporarily remove the stars during processing (as otherwise they dominate after stretching the contrast). full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
