Description

Relatively faint star forming region.  Young stars are just beginning to expel the molecular cloud at the center.  The HII region reminds me of the Garlic or Popped Balloon Nebula.  This is narrowband HOO with Sulphur II then added as yellow.  9xHa, 10xOIII, 10xSII.  Stars are slightly reduced in AstroPixelProcessor.
