The Iris Nebula

KEVIN STEWART, NORTHUMBERLAND, 7 SEPT 2018

Kevin says: “My goal was to capture the dark dust clouds, so the picture was framed to show the dark dust leading to the nebula. This was my first attempt at capturing dust clouds and I’m thrilled to say when this was processed they were viable.”
