Description

A wide field of the Rho Ophiuchi region taken from a dark sky site in Sauk County, WI. Shot with an unmodified DSLR, so some of the pink nebulosity will not be seen. I chose to keep the Milky Way at the bottom left corner since it shows how this region connects with the Milky Way in Saggittarius.
