Description

IC 2162 is a HII Ionized region in the Orion constellation. I did not get much usable OIII data. The narrowband combination used here is H-S-S. Ha and SII data are good for this target, this combination gave the most pleasing colors. RGB stars were combined with the HSS result. I tried HaRGB combination but too much detail of the nebulae was lost. More data would probably have given better results, but I have only had a couple of clear nights in recent months, and this target is low in my sky.
