Description

Everybody knows the famous Eagle Nebula with the Pillars of Creation. But did you know that right next to it an even larger but fainter Ha nebula is located? Sh2-54 easily fits into the same viewfield as M16. This is my starless approach to show the amount of structure in this region, without messing it with the thousands of stars there.
