Description

After the publication of the H-alpha image here [url=http://astrob.in/312900/E/]http://astrob.in/312900/E/> I processed the color image.

Here is another region very rich in Sagittarius. It is a large nebulous complex and star forming region.

NGC 6559 is located just one degree east of M8 (the Lagoon Nebula).

We will notice the Dark Nebula B 303, as a dark serpentine structure snaking thru the IC 4685 complex.
