Description

The picture of M 8 and Simeis 188 was made with a dual narrow band filter (Idas NBZ) on the beautiful Canary Island of La Palma. My TS 90-600 mm APO and the sensitive ASI 2600 MC Pro were used. The beautiful H-alpha and O III structures in the nebula and the numerous dark nebulae are very interesting.
