The Trifid Nebula, M20, in Sagittarius

Manually, off-axis guided for 5 x 10 & 13 x 5-minute exposures, f6.3, ISO 1600. Registered and stacked using DeepSkyStacker software.

Unmodified EOS 40D & Celestron C8 telescope.

 

I've added more data to last year's version, re-stacked and re-processed.

 

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