The Trifid Nebula, M20, in Sagittarius

Unmodified EOS 40D & Celestron C8 telescope.

Manually off-axis guided for 13 x 5-minute exposures, f6.3, ISO 1600; 1 x 5- & 5 x 3-minute exposures, f6.3, ISO 1000. Registered and stacked using DeepSkyStacker software.

 

Not an easy object to image from the UK, as it is far to the South.
