      Description

      Rho Ophiuchi and IC 4604.

      This is not the final result, we are planning to collect more data in June. Planets are preventing us from making this photo (in exact sence of these words - Mars is too close to the area, just outside the CCD FOV, causing light spikes all over the place, especially L and R frames). We will be able to continue collecting the data as soon as it will be further away in June.

      Anyway, I am very pleased with this result. This star looks just awesome! Like this nice blue hue.
