Had to have a go at this one after seeing Raymos picture and reading that it was the pseudonym of Chilean writer and feminist , Lucila Godoy Alcayaga.Details are nightscape camera , SW 120ED with 0.8x focal reducer. 40 x 3min subs , 40 flats/biases,30 darks. All processed and stacked in astrofx and tweaked in PS.

Thats a lovely little cluster there.

Nice picture.. my attempt was a little under done of this one.. i think it needs a ton of short subs as well to really not overdo the lil star cluster at the top whilst bringing out the nebula. Youve done well though.

Thanks everyone for your comments , i tried lassoing the cluster after increasing the levels and bringing it back.Also cropped the nebula to compare it to a picture of Gabriela Mistral , just for fun.
