Description

Object type : emission nebula
Distance : 11,000 lightyears

This is the brightest part of the Lion Nebula. The circumstances were not good, it was very wet, and the atmosphere was noisy. Nevertheless, I shooted more than 3,5 hours. The result can be better, but for now I am confident with this result.
