Description

LDN 379 is a dark nebula located in the dense part of Milky Way near the Omega Nebula. I find the concentration of stars in this region mesmerizing. The dense dust that makes up the dark nebula adds some structure to this star field. To my eye LDN 379 looks like a giant angel fish swimming in a cosmic ocean.
