Image through a telescope of the ring nebula, an elliptical green/blue smudge with apparent central hollow. Overall frame is a starfield.

M57, the ring nebula, only captured because a car alarm woke me and rather than get angry about that I needed something calm in the universe. Shoddy conditions from urban back yard, 40s, high cloud haze. Still, that light set off >2500 years ago and it made it here ok. #astro #starGoesPop #hatecars
