ρ-Ophiuchi Nebula Complex and friends.

Located at the meeting of Scorpio and Ophiuchus, this is arguably the most venomous part of the sky.

Let's look around.

Down the bottom we have Antares, a red supergiant, illuminating IC4606 - the Antares Nebula, and next to it the edge of the globular cluster M4.

Above M4 is a region illuminated by Al Niyat or Sigma Scorpii.

In between and above M4 and Antares is the tiny globular cluster NGC6144.

Directly above that is IC4603, and above that is the edge of what is recognised as IC6404, the ρ-Ophiuchi nebula itself.

Lastly, almost directly above Antares is IC4605 - the Blue Angel nebula.

Shot with a #Dwarf3 from my back yard in suburban #PerthWA , post processed in Stellar Studio, #Snapseed , and #GooglePhotos . Total exposure 6:19, 60s subs at gain 80, Ha/OIII filter.

This month's target of the month from AGWA is the Statue of Liberty Nebula ( #NGC3579 ), which is in Carinae, and near the famous Eta Carinae Nebula.

This is three hours with a #Dwarf3 in Ha/OIII . Post processing in #Snapseed and Stellar Studio.
