Description

The Lagoon (M8) and Triffid (M20) nebulas in a wide angle mosaic (6 photos in a 3x2 mosaic). The trifid is a combination of reflection (blue), emission (red) and dark nebulas. The Lagoon is a huge nebula visible to the naked eye from dark locations. They are very close in the sky and one of the most popular targets for astrophotography.
