The Little Snake and NGC6559

Post by rcj »

Another image derived from the recent Mersing trip. Never took this before, and was cleverly suggested by Kelvin. It is a region near M8 which is rich in reflective and emissive components, together with dark nebulae, and a whole lot of yellowish stars. Have fallen in love with this region totally... not forgetting the little snake!
