The Carina Region

This is an image of the Carina constellation, home to one of the biggest and brightest nebulae in the sky, the Eta Carina Nebula, seen in the top right. The photographer decided to heavily push the red in this image, which reveals the spectacular hydrogen-alpha detail. Also visible in the bottom left is the Statue of Liberty Nebula, plus many dark nebulae. It is a very dense region of sky! The photographer also included H-alpha taken through a filter to really make the faint nebulae shine.
