3h 21min of integral RGB exposure of an area on the Eastern side of the Circinus molecular cloud complex (G317-4) featuring multiple dark nebulae - captured remotely using Telescope #3 (ASA-N D = 0.5m f/3.8, FLI ProLine 16803) system of ChileScope observatory over 4 imaging sessions carried out on Mar 1, 2, 16, 18, 2023.
There are several small features of interest here:
(a) "Little rhombus" cluster - closer to the middle of the original image:
(b) Hen 2-113 / PK321-03.1 planetary nebula [1, 2] - closer to the bottom of the original image:
