AstronomyUkraine Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Beautiful image with amazing colours Peter. Alas this is one object I will never be able to capture from my location, I don't think it ever comes above the horizon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulgrover68 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 A spectacular image - it's one of those images that has something new wherever you look. I have to say this is one of pictures that makes me look at what I do and start to think "right, what do I have to do to achieve a similar result?" Inspirational - that's the word! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Paul..... I have been chasing this one for a few years now.....I will still revisit it as there is nearly everything in one place. In this frame it has a Star cluster, Globs, Dark Nebulae, Emission, Reflection including a yellow one ... I don't know of any others and its got a tiny galaxy IC4596....
