Description

The Dark Tower is an elongated dark cloud of dust and gas located in the southern constellation of Scorpius.

Due to high light pollution, it was a challenge to imaging this object. RGB filters would not be able to produce good results, so SHO filters were used to bring more light to the black structure of the nebula.
