Description

Viewing and imaging the Scorpius / Sagittarius portion of the Summer MilkyWay with my 60D and 180mm f/2.8 Nikkor-P Lens, this section was a Required Stop. The Lagoon Nebula (M8) and Triffid Nebula (M20) highlight an area with several other Nebula and Open Clusters, plus the very bright Sagittarius star cloud. Shot from the TAAA Dark Site in SE AZ.
