IC,VdB e nebulose oscure, il campo di IC 2169

[Fabiomax (Fabiomassimo)]

Hi!,

The image shows the nebular complex around the IC 2169, with NGC 2245 and VdB 77 and VdB 78. The nebulae in the lower right corner are the Sh2 273 which extends to the Cono nebula. The two VdB are certainly not the most impressive in the catalog. Surely the Cono nebula is much more photographed, but even this field is really beautiful and close to the Cono nebula. It is about 10 hours of total exposure and the data is at the link (with the highest resolution image and the one noted).

That's a nice image too. Lots of interesting things to look at in the field.
