Description

Object type : emission nebula
Distance : 9,100 lightyears

The moon was shining very bright. I tried to made the best of it. Also this was a test, what result I was getting under these circumstances. Almost 3 hours of exposuretime. I will visit this object once more under better circumstances, because I have the feeling that there is a lot more in it.
