Deeper still

Here's the latest 82 images of Gyulbudaghian's Variable nebula stacked with a more carefully taken flat field. Just thought I'd share it with you. Look around the red star PV Cephei in the dark 'hollow' at the centre - can you see a jet shooting out below and slightly to the right? This is the nebula I'm looking for - not the vast billowing clouds swallowing up the stars at the left. It's madly overexposed as I couldn't resist turning up the contrast!
