Rho Ophiuchus

West Lorne, ON

The super giant Antares glowing red/yellow near centre of the frame. M4 the globular cluster to the right. Dark lanes top left of frame. Gases glow yellow, red, and blue from the pressure of the stars. But to me, the most impressive area of this frame is in the lower left corner. Faint strings of blue stars. What an area.
