Description

I stumbled over this part of the sky by coincidence. I hadn’t noticed it before – maybe because of the lack of a catchy name – how about “the demon face”. It kind of looks like those two “eyes” in the nebula are staring back at you 😊.   

This was a tricky one to process. Thanks to Adam Block's excellent “Fundamentals” a was able to tame the halos around the brightest stars – not perfect but I enjoyed the ride.
