Eta Carina is the 2nd most beautiful nebula in the night sky after M42. One day that star is going to Supernova. It will be quite a view when it does. One of the most massive stars known.
3 x 30 seconds. Dark sky site, Nexstar 11 at F6.3, Nikon D70, ISO 1600. Images Plus, Nikon Capture Editor.
NSW Australia in Jan.
A very dense area of the Milky Way with lots of stars in this region and Caldwell 091 huge open cluster nearby as well as the Southern Cross and the Jewel Box open cluster.
I intend to get better shots as clouds moved in and interrupted a beautifully clear night.
