Description

This image of the Gabriel Mistral nebula and surrounding area was captured by Deep Sky West from their location in Chile.  The data was an absolute pleasure to process.  Thank you to Lloyd for sharing it with me.

I typically don't put RGB stars in my SHO images, preferring to concentrate on the nebula rather than the stars.  However, in this case I though that the open cluster NGC3293 was missing something important if I didn't show the difference between the blue supergiants and the red supergiant V361 Carinae.
