Sh2-73 sits in Hercules. This is the full size view of this object but shows the many small galaxies behind This is one of the fainter objects in the catalog of this type but is strongest in green and blue. Taken with my Intes MakNewt 8 inch F/4 and the QSI 583 WSG guiding with the Lodestar autoguider.

Spring Triangle with Saturn
http://www.galacticimages.com
Copyright: John Chumack
[attachment=2]SpringTriangle_Saturn_ChumackHRweb.jpg[/attachment]
Bright stars that make up the Triangle….
Left side is Arcturus in Bootes,
Very Top is Denebola in Leo,
Spica in Virgo is at the bottom.
But there is something amiss with the Triangle, an extra bright star just above Spica; it’s the planet Saturn!
This is a single 25 second exposure & represents what the eye would see from a typical 4th Mag. Suburban location.
