I managed to reprocess this for a bit more definition. This is a faint nebula located in Taurus, about 5 degrees from the Pleiades. This was taken with a Takahashi FSQEDXIII and represents 24 hours of exposures.

The Vulture Head or Baby Eagle Nebula take your pick…
This nebula is at a distance of about 400 light years and is fairly difficult for astrophotographers to capture. It is difficult to tease the eagle out of the background stars. This was taken through a Takahashi 106mm telescope through RGB filters. The imaging time was 24 hours.
