Description

Wide field of the Cat's Paw region of Scorpio. A synthetic luminescence from the HaRGB channels. Ha 5x300s, RGB 5x150s. I processed the image to try and bring out some of the obscuring dust in the area. The "lobster" certainly looks more like a crab to me, but that name was already taken!
