Description

This is a widefield image of the Cave Nebula Sh2-155, which is shown towards the centre of frame. Other ionised regions visible include Sh2-154, Sh2-161, and an amputated lobster claw Sh2-157 to the lower left.

Being from down-under, this is a refreshingly unfamiliar part of the sky for me. I like the variety across this star forming region, especially the arms of dark nebulosity separating the emission regions.

Wishing you CS and good health!
