Closeup on a little known southern dark cloud

After getting home from the footy (Knights won), I went for the deep southern nebula complex, part of which is known as IC 2631, in Chamelion. DEC of -77.
10 x 10 mins ISO200. Full spectrum, that is no filters used at all, so my modded 350D can see any infra red light there as well. I imaged this earlier in the week with my 6 inch SN. Had a strong gradient, and a hazy moist sky to contend with. Its fun imaging little known objects, of which few images in colour exist.
