Terrific image Mike. Such a colourful part of the sky and so much to take in.

I agree Pete...I did work the colour strongly on this one though ..why?..because I was directed there by a mysteeerious force ....

Ha ha nah just the knight/saint ..but they are very fitting names...especially Collin, perfect name for a dragon, I also like Kevin.

It was really worthwhile opening the full resolution image and browsing around - countless stars, so many possibilities...

There is a curious little red nebulosity at around 9 o'clock near the edge of the image - wondering whether is has some classification

A very sparkly and pleasing image Mikeo

Thanks a lot Suavi

Don't know what that bit of nebulosity is, the great Sakib Rasool couldn't identify it either ..I'm speculating it may be a bit of an old SNR remnant..?
