Really amazing! I didn't know an image like this was possible from a ground-based telescope!

Thanks! It is possible, even much better than this One needs better seeing and less polluted skies to capture incredible detail which is lost in my version...

Thanks Sure, I used a 50 cm telescope in Bonn with an SBIG STL 6303E camera, a few hours (about 1.5h/filter) of narrowband imaging + Baader L + a lot of Photoshop and Maxim DL.

And above now The most difficult part was finding nights of excellent seeing, from my location this object does not gain a too high altitude...
