Description

My second try at M16, the Eagle Nebula. About an hour of integration time and the superbly dark skies of the New Mexican desert really help to frame a fantastic image.

Description: My second try at M16, the Eagle Nebula. About an hour of integration time and the superbly dark skies of the New Mexican desert really help to frame a fantastic image. Went through the processing again, this time used a different color balance method for stacking. I think the colors came out closer to what they should be. Also ended up cropping out edge distortions from not having a field flattener.
