One of the most colorful parts of the night sky: the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex.
The orange star is Antares, a supergiant nearing the end of its life. It illuminates the interstellar clouds of gas and dust, parts of which are very dense and appear dark because starlight can't go through.
The other stars are white/blue - their temperature is much higher.
In the 6 o'clock position is Messier 4 - a globular cluster of thousands of stars.
Around, red hydrogen emission nebulae.
This is a 1-hour exposure with a 6Da camera + 300mm f/4 lens.

The Rho Ophiuchi Cloud Complex is a stunning and intricate region of interstellar dust and gas located near the star Rho Ophiuchi in the constellation Ophiuchus. This complex is a prime example of a stellar nursery, where new stars are born amidst swirling clouds of dust and gas, creating a breathtaking tapestry of cosmic beauty.
