Thumbs up Mars in the Lagoon Nebula

From Ian Musgraves astroblog site.

While we are waiting breathlessly for comet 2006/P1 McNaught, Mars is slowly gliding towards the Lagoon Nebula in the morning sky. Over the next few mornings, watching Mars approach the Lagoon Nebula will be beautiful, cumulating on the 16th, when Mars is in the heart of the Nebula. Best viewed with binoculars.

Hopefully one of our Deep Sky imagers will have a go at this.
