Our image was obtained by Sven Kohle and Till Credner of

with the 1-meter telescope of the Hoher List observatory. It was created from

3 exposures with a 2048×2048 CCD camera, with B, V, and H-alpha filter.

The B and V images were exposed for 30 minutes each, the H-alpha image for

245 minutes. The image is copyrighted

by the observers.
