NGC 6188 Rim Nebula ( Ara ) First Image

After capturing NGC 3576 on Wednesday night , NGC 6188 was just passing the meridian on the same side up high at 70 degrees so captured a few hours on this target for the first time as well
I wasn’t particularly aiming for the fighting dragons , so left the orientation of the frame as it was
Really enjoyed imaging and processing this Nebula as it has so much varied detail ( apart from the Dragons ) quite an amazing nebula
