This is a wonderful Southern object not often imaged.
Nikkor 50mm lens and STL11 camera HaRGB 15 5 5 5 at F4.5
To get the size of this object in perspective it would be several full moons across and the same setup in one image would capture the bulk of the centre of the Milky Way.
It is quite near Eta Carina - a bit above and to the left. It isn't a visual object as its too faint.
