False-color image of the central region of the Dumbbell Nebula (M27, NGC 6853) in the constellation Vulpecula. Green represents glowing hydrogen gas; red shows dense molecular gas and dust. This planetary nebula was created by an aging star (visible near the center). Requires powerful telescopes to observe in this detail.

Dumbbell Nebula from my terrace last year.
It still astonishes me every time that you can explore these objects with comparatively little effort, even from a brightly lit city. This was a roughly four-hour exposure with a SkyWatcher 200/1000 Newtonian and a Canon 5D MkIII.

I’m amazed that it’s possible to take pictures of things like the Dumbbell Nebula from my back yard. The universe is wild. #NGC6853 #astrophotography
