Part of the Lacerta Molecular Cloud

Image from Pier 5 @Roboscopes in Spain (Tak Epsilon 180, ASI 2400MC Pro OSC, Paramount MX unguided). Field of view 4.13 deg x 2.75 deg

200 x 120sec subs OSC. Processed in Pixinsight.

Field is centred on small open spiral galaxy NGC 7223. BUt lots of other galaxies if you search around. I like the way you can see a number of distant galaxies faintly through the main dust and gas cloud. Not the most brightly coloured image but intriguing nevertheless.
