Description

I, like so many others I guess, have long been entranced by this area of the sky. The colours and intricate gas and dust patterns are truly beautiful. This is my first attempt at the region - last year I left it way too late in the season to bother, and this year was almost the same, especially with cloud-limiting imaging time. I would have preferred some more hours but the acquisition of a new scope (Esprit 120) means I have to finally move on to other targets with my new toy.
