Description

This stellar nursery in Sagittarius is home to many different nebulae including IC1274, IC1275, NGC 6559 and IC4685....but aside from a bunch of numbers, this is a beautiful and complex reflection nebula. I took images to create this throughout May 2023 from my balcony in Freshwater, Sydney.
