Vela Area - The Gums

Vela Area - The Gums
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vela_(constellation)

This started as a good idea but was really the wrong time started high and finished by 3am. I have never taken the three gums middle to top of shot the small one Gum 15,

to the Right Gum 14 and Gum 17 to the left. At the bottom of shot the face of what looks like a Racoon The Vela Supernova Remnant.

RCW 35 the larger Red area and RCW 36 the one on the edge of the left side.


What looks like a single shot is infact a 10 shot panorama 2 x4 Plus I added an extra two shot to get in RCW35 &36.
