Teide volcano, Tenerife

Image taken on 2008-06-06, during The Canarian Expedition. Location at 2000m over sea level on Teide Volcano, Tenerife Island. Amazingly transparent and dark skies, but seeing less than average.

This interesting complex of dark and reflection nebulae is located just below the Scorpius head.

Starlight Express SXV-M25 CCD,Takahashi SKY90 with reducer,Takahashi EM-1 mount
7 x 600s, dark nebulae definitely need more (at least 2-3 hours) but the amazingly dark sky helps to bring the nebula out. Acquired, calibrated and stacked with Maxim_DL, processed with Adobe Photoshop and Neat Image full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
