Description

Another first attempt at a famous DSO with my RC8.  This time the Trifid nebula.  Plagued by clouds throughout, so the ingration time is a bit short,  the result is far better than I expected or deserved. I do like the blue reflection nebula extending around the Trifid, and the dark lanes that cross it.
