Description

Black Manta Nebula: This Dark Nebula resembling at lower resolution a Manta Fish lies not far from the galactic center in the constellation of Scutum. The deep image was created by using in addition to LRGB filters also an H-alpha filter, thus bringing out the fine structures of the beautiful object. The rich star field of this region was also slightly reduced.
