Description

This image was taken beginning of July last year as part of my first ever mosaic - https://www.astrobin.com/4wb1c2/B/. I remember the nice warn nights out on the patio. Not like tonight here in the Pacific Northwest with snow falling at sea level...What a weather!
I cropped in here to emphasize more on the core of the Nebula. I find there are intriguing structures that would merit a closer look next season with my larger scope.
