Description

I thought I would make a panorama of the cirrus in Octans.  Unfortunately I got my camera orientation wrong when trying to stitch panels together near the pole, so the mosaic is not as extensive as I wanted it to be.  Nevertheless, I am quite pleased with the result and I find this galactic cirrus rather beautiful.  I am not sure in the centre feature has a name, but I think it looks like the entrance to the Ghost Train tunnel.
