Description

I have seen this area in a few widefield images near the more popular NGC 1333. I decided to zoom in and focus on it a little more. I was absolutely delighted with the number of background galaxies that could be seen through the thin wisp of dust. I gathered around six hours of Ha data that I had hoped would help define some more of the red glow I've seen in other images but adding that data only seemed to detract from the quality of the image. I hope you enjoy.

cheers,
Cody
