Description

Possibly the hardest object I ever imaged. A very dim OIII bubble produced by a Wolf-Rayet star, surrounded by thin dark nebulae. Acquired from very transparent skies, in Barreal, Pampa del Leoncito, San Juan, Argentina.

I tried to preserve the subtleties of the background dust as much as possible, which is everywhere. There are very few RGB images of this object that I could find.
