Gem Cluster NGC 3293

The Gem Cluster NGC 3293 that is next to Carina. Originally taken as a fill in as the other shots got stopped at 2am by the palm tree this became a fill in. To get a photo of better quality I had to add a further 3 Full nights data to the data that was gained from the fill in time shots. The wisps you see are quite amazing.

Do read the info on the accidental panorama below.

Thank you part of "Our" Southern skies not seen north of the equator. We both get to enjoy a bit of the out of the world that is above us...
