[AZ-Observing] Re: Planetary and globular in Sagittarius

Hi Jon,

Another fantastic PC desktop photo for me to look at all day. Great Job!!
Quite a few people at my work place have been learning a bit about astronomy
due to your images as they see how "Pretty" they are and it opens the way
for discussion. Thank you as always for sharing...

Subject: [AZ-Observing] Planetary and globular in Sagittarius


Here's a photo of a planetary and globular fairly close to one another
(visually) in Sagittarius.  The field of view of this image is approximately
1/2 degree by 1/3 of a degree.  The globular is reddened and darkened
considerably by gas and dust between us and it in the sagittarius star
cloud.  It's interesting to get these two types of objects in the same field
of view.

Thanks for looking,
