About this image

Gosh it's been cloudy of late. Fortunately I got some shots in on my trip to Devon at the end of May. In the dark I mistakenly set the lens to f/4 rather than a faster setting. 70 mins of data rendered in a false Hubble Palette which works well on these targets. Like the recent close up of the Pelican I posted I've oriented the image to enhance the view of the dark dust column L935.
