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.
