Description

The Spider and Fly nebulae are situated in Auriga, at around 10 000 and 7000 ly away. They are emission nebulae. 

This is a Hubble palette, the Oxygen is very weak and mostly present in the Spider nebula. The nebula is pretty faint, but due to the 24h of exposure I managed to emphasize the dark clouds in the background. 

Shot on multiple nights : 23/09; 01/10; 08/10; 11/10; 12/10; 18/10. Mostly with the 1600MM, and a few hours with the 2600MM.
