The PRAWN nebula- ngc-3199

Hi All,
Yeah well O.K. I named it that, others call it the Banana Nebula, so why not, An interesting item in the Carina Area, I think the Open Cluster is IC2581, note the nebulosity around it, there is also some nebulosity at the top right of the picture, Im going to do some more work (weather permitting) in this area, as it looks worth spending time on, I took this using the ED80 and EOS300D (modded) a hard combination to beat.


6 x 6 Min. Exp. at ISO-800, DF removed, guided.

cheers......Jim
