Description

After a few years, I pull out these old raw images of the tarantula nebula... The treatments in the past had given nothing, mainly because of my lack of practice of photo processing but also because of the focus that would be clearly perfectible. But I thought that the beauty of this nebula accessible only under the southern sky was worth the shot to be published... had memory of a wonderful trip to Chile at Alain Maury’s...
