Astro 2016 - IMG_7567

SKU:
"The Trifid"

The Trifid Nebula, Messier 20. This nebula is readily identifable due to the trifurcated appearance of dark nebula "spokes" in the red emission nebula.

This in an HDR stack of exposures - 3 x 5min, 3 x 2min, and 3 x 1min. I decided not to crop the image to zoom in on the nebula - to hide the fact that in one of the frames there is a noticable drift in some of the stars - this is one, but definitely not the only, reason for taking more than 3 shots for stacking.
