Chamaeleon molecular cloud

These images show a small portion of the Chamaeleon molecular cloud that I've been imaging over the last several nights. I'm not normally a fan of starless images, but in this case, the starless image shows the turbulent structure of the cloud that is otherwise difficult to see. It was a struggle imaging this from a Bortle 5 suburban backyard but I guess I should be thankful it's not Bortle 6, 7, or even 8 suburban backyard! A bigger image with acquisition details and a starless mouse rollover is on Astrobin.


Cheers, Kevin
