Description

The Lion Nebula(Sharpless 132) is an emission nebula in the constellation Cepheus and lies some 10,000 light years away in the Perseus Arm of the Milky Way Galaxy. My capture is actually a part of the Lion Nebula, you can see  upside down the Lion’s head in the center and his body doing an arc on the top left of the picture.

Total capture time is around 30 hours...
