Description

My image if this region, in the Tail of the Scorpion. The red nebula visible near the center of this image is the IC 4628 or Prawn Nebula. The faint nebulosity extends much more than this picture shows, but this would only be visible in a Modified Camera (my is unmodded) Due South, in this image, on the Right side, there is a bright Cluster, NGC 6231 or C 76. This Cluster is beautiful in a Telescope, and the entire region is simply spectacular in Binoculars.

Taken from Rural Skies, Bortle 3 or 4, quite a while ago, but I've only precessed it now. From MG, Brazil. Thanks for seeing.

Camera: Unmodded T4i/650D at ISO 800

Lens: Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8, at 200mm and f/3.2

Exposure Detail: 20x40s; total 13 minutes 20 seconds.





Minha imagem dessa região, na Cauda de Escorpião. A nebulosa vermelha próxima ao centroé IC 4628, ou Nebulosa do Camarão. A tênue nebulosidade se extende muito mais do que mostrado nessa foto, mas esta seria apenas visível numa câmera Modificada (minha é não-modificada). Ao Sul, à Direita nessa imagem, há um aglomerado brilhante, NGC 6231 ou C76. Este aglomerado é muito belo em telescópios, e a região inteira é simplesmente espetacular em binóculos.

Tirada de Céus Rurais, Bortle 3 ou 4, há certo tempo, mas só processei a foto agora. De MG, Brasil. Obrigado por ver.

*The -B- version is a bit brighter, to show a bit more of nebulosity*

* The -C- verison is a Crop, on the most interesting area. Astonishing in binoculars. It was made to show that many targets are accessible and greatly captured with a 200mm lens, no telescope at all. *
