I'm not (nor will be) an astrophotographer, but I really like seeing what you lot do.
What a wonderful image!
Your question got me very badly distracted from work. After updating and correcting some things in my Stellarium, this is what I found: after turning on all DSO catalogues, setting DSO markers and hints at max, and removing all magnitude limits - almost nothing to be seen at those coordinates!
The basic Deep-sky objects background images shows the faintest of edges on the east side, but when turning on instead the Digitized Sky Survey (TOAST), your bubble could be very faintly seen.
Stellarium reports the position about:
RA/Dec (J2000): 4h 54m 01.95s / -70° 00' 08.0"
RA/Dec (on date): 4h 53m 52.23s / -69° 57' 49.8"
Another way for others to find it: it is sitting in the centre of the triangle of three identified star clusters:
NGC 1711
NGC 1751
NGC 1766
As to where else you could search for info, no idea, sorry, so can’t help further at the moment. Hopefully some professional astronomers could help.
Thanks Peter for your image too. You AP people bring out things the rest of us just can't see, so thanks.
