Clusters and Nebulas over the Ocean by lrargerich on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
One of the most interesting parts of the Milky Way rising above the Ocean.
The very bright Eta Carina nebula, visible to the naked eye shines at the top, followed by the small but bright lambda centauri nebula. Both are pink/red in color.
Then next to the southern cross you can find the dark nebula known as the coalsack. A gigantic area of dust that occults the stars in the Mliky Way plane.
Just above the ocean the brightest globular cluster in the sky: Omega Centauri is rising. You will see it in the photo and with your naked eye as a diffuse star bigger than the normal stars. Omega has recently been upgraded to dwarf galaxy status.
