The Rho Ophiuchi Nebula in Scorpius
About this object
What I think is the prettiest area of the sky, the Rho Ophiuchi nebula region in Scorpius. This was shot at the 2016 Stellarvue Deep Sky Party in Likely CA. (20) 4min exposures using a Canon 60Da at ISO 3200 and Rokinon 35mm F1.4 lens @ f4. The image was tracked using my Astrotrac.
