Lambda Centauri nebula
Part of IC2944 (aka "running chicken nebula") in the southern sky, this nebula is asociated with the bright star (mag 3.1) lambda centauri. This nebula is near invisible to common LRGB color filters, but have a rich Hidrogen alpha emission. This is a Ha-L-RGB composite for about 8 hours. The bright star in the frame leads to optical reflexes difficult to attenuate, but I still decide include it to reveal the surroundings. GSO RC 30cms scope, camera STF8300/AO-8 from La Colonia, Illapel, Chile.
