NGC1999 Full field
NGC1999 Crop
The total exposure lasted almost 18 hours through 5 filters (HaLRGB). Interesting is the contrast between the yellow/brown dusts and red and blue gases, an explosion of colors in a rather small area. At the center of the image, the small NGC1999 looks like a dark keyhole for a mysterious cosmic key Highly recommended the full resolution versions! I am also interested in your opinion of which of the two views is the most interesting to keep.
I hope you will like the image(s) and that these could be an incentive for someone with a longer FL to shooting it.
Clear skies
