Description

NGC5367 in the constellation Centaurus at about 2000 light years away. A nice little reflection nebula embedded within the much larger cometary globule CG12, which extends across the field of view. A few small galaxies and bright, colored stars sprinkled around also add to the character! 
Not my best work as I only managed one dark-sky night, with bad seeing, on the March new moon. The plan was to get another one/two nights during the April new moon but unfortunately I wasn't able to do that as weather, the man cold, and prescribed burns ruined my plans. Nevertheless, I still managed to pull together this image albeit not as sharp and refined as I was hoping.
