Eta Carina Wide Field Poster

Hi All,

This is a wide angle view of the Eta Carina Nebula region. It's amazing how many DSOs were visible at the same time so I made a poster pointing to the most prominent DSOs in the photo. The highlighted objects are just zoomed from the photo. I think it can be a nice (and long) project to photograph each object with a longer lens to show better detail.

Hope you like it!
