Heart and soul nebula visible in the pic to the left at about 2.5k ly - ngc7822 nebula behind me about 3k ly - on the Galaxy map the heart and soul nebulae is to the right of the cluster - the pic is upside down in relation to the Galaxy map

NGC 7822, well worth a visit, lots of massive white stars and black holes, the link below is some pics I took when I was there

That nebula is directly behind me when I face those blue/whites, my path took me wide of the ngc 7822 nebula so I've pencilled it in for my return leg

It would have helped if I had read you post properly
Eagle Nebula possibly?

If I highlight a star in the monkey head region that cluster is directly in the middle of heart and soul and monkey... I'll make yet another detour shortly lol - I've made more detours on this journey than all of England's roadworks combined !

Search S171 and you will find them all. About 60 of them. I visited quite a few in order (S171-1 S171-2 etc.) and then got bored.
