CED110 & CED111 in Chamaleon

Description and Details: These molecular clouds in the Chamaeleon constellation have long held my gaze, quietly pulling me back to them once more.

For this journey, I reunited with my beloved SkyWatcher 150 Quattro, though I had to take a step back—setting aside the 2600 and embracing the humble 1600 instead.

It was a bitterly cold night in the desert, beneath the silent skies at the foot of La Silla Observatory in the Atacama Desert—but for me, every moment was worth it.
