Description

An image from June, 2021.
My intention was never to publish this image, but the abstinence due to clouds is driving me crazy.

Also, Am I crazy or there is a little open start cluster with H Alpha emission on the right side of the picture? It looks like [DBS2003] 80 , but I may be wrong.
