Also known as the Lagoon nebula, this is a large hydrogen emission nebula in the constellation Sagittarius. The red color is light emitted by hydrogen atoms excited by intense starlight. It is a region of active star formation, as can be seen by the cluster of bright stars near the center. It is also relatively close to earth, about 4000 LY, so appears large in the sky, about 3x the size of the moon.

This a long lost memory of what makes the summer months so much better than the constant cold and rain. The picture says it all.
This video “MIX 8” is another selection of images, both graphic, design and Photographic. The idea is to show the range of styles and techniques from right across my wide range of styles. It is followed in my Photostream by individual images taken from the video, but shown as single images at full size. These will appear on my photostream spread over the following week.
There are more examples of these Mixes on my portfolio website :-

The Lagoon Nebula is a giant interstellar cloud in the constellation Sagittarius. It is classified as an emission nebula and as an H II region. The Lagoon Nebula was discovered by Giovanni Hodierna before 1654 and is one of only two star-forming nebulae faintly visible to the eye from mid-northern latitudes. The nebula lies around 4,077 light years away.
While I love the Great Orion Nebula, I am growing more enamored with this particular nebula. Take a closer look at everything going on here - dust lanes, waves of hydrogen clouds and more. It's a gorgeous nebula!

M8, Lagoon Nebula. Almost 35 hrs integration time. Sky-Watcher Esprit 120mm, QHY278M, Optolong 3nm NG, and RGB filters.
13hrs of Hydrogen data taken from downtown Bortle 9 Phoenix, Arizona. 13 hrs Sulphur split between Bortle 1 and Bortle 9, and 6 hrs Oxygen all Bortle 1, new moon. 1.5 hrs of RGB also at Bortle 1. I did some interesting combinations of the data to get this final image.
It lies about 5,000 light-years away, and spans 100 light-years, in the constellation Sagittarius.

5,200 Light years away in the constellation Sagittarius is the Lagoon Nebula M8 (NGC 6523).
This vast emission nebula is home to the open star cluster NGC6530. The open cluster contains thousands of stars, most of which are hidden by the interstellar gas & dust that make up this awesome nebula.
The image is made up from about 2 hours of data using the Chile 2 telescope at Slooh.com stacked & processed with PixInsight.
Think I took similar shots to this around 6 years ago and thought it was due a revisit. Photo 347/366

天の川の中にあっても目立った存在です。
ド定番の構図ですが、アップ気味なのでそこそこ迫力がありますね。
画像下側の大きな星雲がM8(干潟星雲)、右上の赤と青のコントラストが綺麗なものがM20(三裂星雲)です。
次回はもう少し引いた構図で暗黒帯も一緒に撮影したいです。
