Thanks everyone for all your positive comments.
In fact I think that this large nebula in Norma (NGC6188 etc) should have it's own name, like the "Tasmania Nebula" - it kinda looks like tasmania in wide field images (see

I'm sure if it were a northern sky object it would be called something like the californian nebula or north america nebula.
