Description

This 4-panel mosaic shows Crux with the famous coalsack nebula. It was photographed in May during my last stay at Hakos. Many other deep sky objects are visible. The most notable is probably NGC 4755, the Jewel Box, to the lower left of Mimosa. Each panel is 20x60s at 800 ISO with the Samyang 135mm at f/2.8.
