Abstract

Calibrated CCD images of the galactic H II regions NGC 1624 and NGC 6523 (M8) in the emission lines of Hα, [0 III]λ5007, and [S II]λ6723 are presented to illustrate the "blister + cavity" nature of most galactic H II regions. In addition to revealing the geometry of the ionized gas, the images illustrate a remarkable diversity of structure of the ISM surrounding young hot stars.
