Nice...definitely not from Singapore.
Would be nice for the newbies (like me!) if you can label some of the more common objects there...looking forward to more gems from you..!

Hi Thomas,
no problem! The picture is actually centered on Lagoon Nebula seen as a red emission nebula. You can catch a glimpse of the Swan nebula, the 'red nebulosity' at extreme top right. Also seen are the numerous dust lanes present of the Milky Way galactic plane. Hope this helps!

HI Remus,
Most of the Swan nebula pics are see are whitish. Are you saying the true colour of the Swan is actually red in colour under long exposure shots ?
