Baby Eagle Nebula

[Mark72]

Hi,

This is a peculiar, rarely image nebula in Taurus (LBN 777). Looks indeed like a bird, some call in a vulture nebula but in close up image it still looks tranquil:)

Thanks for looking!

Excellent going Mark!

Can't find much about this target and being honest, I looked at another shot (google search), before the baby vulture became obvious!

Great dusty browns and your usual excellent star colours.... I think this one is a tad too difficult for me to contemplate though at the moment!

PS, can I have some of your clear skies please!!!!

Cool image Mark and it is good to see something a bit different .

I too second Damian's post... can we have some of your clear skies as I have had nearly a month with just 2 hours last night before the clouds came over again... .

Clear skies?? Yes please

Thanks guys.

You can tell by my signature where the clear skies are; if you want some let me know;)

That's a very interesting shot - I see more of a pigs snout than a baby eagle!!!

That's a lovely image. I think it looks a little more like a baby owl.
