M8 and M20, the Lagoon and Trifid Nebulae
Videos
Against the backdrop of the Milky Way's Galactic Core, a string of bright nebulae march from horizon to sky. In the right field of view (336mm for a 1.5-degree radius field of view in the case) it is possible to see both the beautiful and complex Lagoon nebula (M8) alongside the beautiful and flower-like Trifid Nebula (M20). In this shot, I took data with a filter that favors red and hydrogen alpha light and reprocessed it. This is the first print of the reprocessed version.
