Description

The Shark Nebula swims in an ocean of dust. I may go about collecting more RGB at some point but I was not happy with the RGB that I did have. Much more detail around the dark nebula as well as in vdB149, 150, and even PGC 67671 were much more prominent in mono. Since it's mono, I guess it's now the great white shark nebula.
