Description

GN18.05.6
Sometimes when I search for targets I just browse to Aladin sky atlas for more or less unimaged objects.
This one is a relatively unspectacular reflection nebula in Sagittarius hidden in a pretty dense starfield.
I just managed to get an hour of each rgb filter before the moon getting in the way, it probably would benefit from more exposure time.
Maybe I will try that next year.
I hope you find it at least a bit interresting.
Wolfgang
