Re: Submissions: 2016 March
This is a Blood Moon Eclipse timelapse video. I believe there is no other timelapse like this one on the net, and since we have a lunar eclipse coming soon I thought it might be ideal for this month.
I leave you two links, one for Vimeo and another one for Youtube:

But unlike M82, which must be one of the most-photographed galaxies by Earthly astrophotographers, NGC 3077 so rarely gets its portrait taken. Thank you so much for photographing it for us!

Altamont, NYTo me it looks fantastic, like a strange eye in space. The colors are saturated, and some people may not like that, but I love it. I think it is an amazing portrait of a core starburst galaxy, where the starburst region is sitting inside a large cocoon of old stars. I also love the dramatic dust lanes apparently streaming out of the starburst center. They make me wonder if this galaxy is a little brother or sister of M82, and if the dust lanes emanating from the core of the galaxy also contain ionized hydrogen gas.
But unlike M82, which must be one of the most-photographed galaxies by Earthly astrophotographers, NGC 3077 so rarely gets its portrait taken. Thank you so much for photographing it for us!

You are right that it contains an ionized outflow, which would easily be visible with a Ha filter.

Re: Submissions: 2016 March
I think to see the chicken requires an image with a wider field of view that shows the outer extensions. All I can see is an emission nebula with a star cluster, bright rimmed globules and Bok globules?j.s.ebersole wrote: IC2948 Running Chicken Nebula

The Running Chicken Revealed
http://jebersol.zenfolio.com/

Even with the requested wider field of view, it remains difficult to see the chicken, unless you turn the image 90 deg (bottom left). Then you may discern a “pecking chicken” that is hardly running. Regardless, thanks for comment.

Re: Submissions: 2016 March
That's an even nicer image and includes the bonus planetary nebula* Hen 2-72! Maybe the running chicken is only visible with visual observations?j.s.ebersole wrote: The Running Chicken Revealed
