註釋This coffee-table book will appeal to astronomy enthusiasts, astrophotographers, photography enthusiasts, and serious amateur and professional astronomers. Many will have heard of the most famous treasures of the southern sky, such as the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds and the Tarantula Nebula, but a full photographic exploration of the southern sky has been lacking. Few photos exist of the more obscure yet equally stunning and intriguing objects such as the brilliant star cluster Pismis 24, the stunningly beautiful NGC 1532-1 (a pair of interacting galaxies), or the radiant Toby Jug Nebula (IC 2220). In addition to lesser known objects, very high resolution, large aperture images of well known objects such as the famous "Hourglass" nebula or the "Helix" nebula have been processed with the latest digital methods, revealing these "southern gems" in ways never before seen.
