Description

NGC 6188 - The Fighting Dragons of Ara. I love this region and it frames so beautifully at many different imaging scales. Due to weather I haven't managed to capture as much data as I'd like and the Oiii halos are beginning to annoy me. Might be time to start looking at Chroma or AD filters.
