A random part of Eta Carina, but....

Hi Guys

Not overly attractive but mildly interesting as it turned out. I intended to image WR22 and wound up imaging this with bad pointing as there was a bit going on anyway. I tried to plate solve it with Astrometry.net but regardless of the format I loaded it refused to annotate the image to give me the exact location, but it did tell me it was part of Eta. During processing what looks like part of a circular shock wave appeared in the lower half of the image I cant find any reference to. I bit of a waste of time, but the shock wave (I think) was an interesting find.
Big version here
Cheers
Fred

Yes, that is kinda cool, I agree

There's a region that looks broadly like that at the back of Gabriela Mistral's hair. I must have a look.
