*UPDATE* Private message from mnemeth1: "Ok after going back through the images it does appear the alignment was off and it does line up with CW Leonis. Interesting object. I pulled the video down." Huge respect to you mnemeth1. One of only a handful of people who can have a mature debate and admit they were wrong about something. If only certain other people would take a leaf out of this man's book.

A circular occulting mask of 2arcsec in diameter was used to block out the light from the bright central object. The images show 2 collimated radial structures to the NNW and WNW, 2 fan-like structures to the S and NE, respectively, and 3 arc-like structures at a radius of 4 to 5 arcsec from the stellar center. We compare this intermediate size-scale structure to that seen on larger and smaller scales and find evidence for a deviation from spherically symmetric outflow beginning ~ 150 years ago. Previous near infrared speckle imaging has revealed a complex clumpy structure on a scale of less than 200 mas, and it is likely that at least some of the radial features seen in our images could be due to shadowing by dust clumps close to the star." http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2002A%26A...395L...9M The 2 fan-like structures to the S and NE, respectively: http://img68.imageshack.us/img68/1618/fanlikestrucad9.png
