For many of us here in the states, local 4th of July firework displays have been canceled due to COVID. So, let's post some cosmic fireworks? Pick your favorite glob or cosmic explosion and post it here to help fill the void for us!
Here's a shot I took over the last two nights of NGC 6888 - 70 frames at 240s with L-Enhance filter.
Happy 4th.
