Description

NGC 6188, The Fighting Dragons, is a southern beauty and definitely one of my favorites.  This is a two--panel mosaic with approximately 8.25hrs per panel.

The goal was to show the splendors of the emission in NGC 6188, while also exposing the outer dust and structure as well as the really cool NGC 6155 & 6156 with the outer halo which takes on the appearance of a planetary nebula.

I've also included a starless version which I think enhances the detail even further.
