Description

The Rho Oppuchi Cloud Complex & Jupiter

photographed from the Egyptian desert

This complex is one of the closest star-forming complexes to our earth. It consists of several very interesting objects such as the orange Antares star, Al Niyat in red as well as p Oph in blue, all encompassed by a long dark nebulae tail.

roughly 2h worth of images taken in Egypt using a Star-Adventuerer + Canon 6Da + Samyang 135mm.
