About this image

Actually taken in brief spells over two nights due to intermittent cloud trouble locally. This is the opposite of the recent James Webb image in infrared - the same region but in visible light only - no filter used - so instead of the clarity at higher IR levels there is the obscuration of dust in visible light.
