NGC 3199 Emission Nebula in Carina

This fairly faint nebula is very disturbed - a major contributor to the 'windblown' appearance of it is a Wolf-Rayert star near its centre.

 

This image was taken from my backyard in suburban Melbourne (SQ-L reading 18.3). I posted a version previously on the Facebook page, but I like this slightly modified HCP version better.

 

ASA10N at f/6.8; STT8300 camera; DDM60; Astrodon 5nm filters; 10min subs in Ha, SII, OIII; total exposure 5 hours.
