Description

NGC 6188 - Great nebula of Ara

Some people say that this nebula, located in the constellation of Ara nearly 4,000 light years away has a fantastic resemblance to a pair of fighting dragons...can you see that ?

This is my first version of this great emission nebula in which the nearby bright open cluster NGC 6193, visible to the naked eye, is responsible for a region of reflection nebulosity within NGC 6188.
