Cats Paw NGC6334 & Lobster NGC 6357 wider field.

Cats Paw NGC6334 & Lobster NGC 6357 wider field.
This has been a marathon to get shots between rain and clouds this has been 4 night to get 120 shot 3 nights close down and cover over. What shows up for those that look closely a very nervous Red Eyed mouse next to the Cats paw. A very dark area of the Milky way when you look at the big panorama I did. This morning the whole area was wet with dew gear got water on it but as there are heaters running very little compared the the surrounds. there is a lot of detail on the right side missed with the stars.

Beautiful images, well justifying all the work involved, Steve. I must admit though that my imagination struggles with some of the "looks likes".

The Cat's paw I can see as the cat has pads like that a little bit , the lobster there is a resemblance but I agree a lot licence on that one. by the way when I took the stars away i did find the running chicken Still very kind of go back to this shot I have put a box around it.

Thank you I am starting to enjoy this hobby and get better results I know early on I nearly gave up its when things dont want to work. the good part is I am mostly asleep for all this just at this time of year you do have to set alarms for clouds and rain.

Thank you. A part of the Milky Way I see in the Southern hemisphere, even I am learning as I go all the intricacies of space. In part by what I have to present to the school kids where I work. .

Many thanks certainly not you average photo you would see every day. I am lucky I always have new wallpapers on my computer . The most of them are of deep space way beyond most people but some thing I do enjoy.
