Description

When using my double setup, I must decide which tube acts as master (for framing etc...), most of the times it is the Esprit-100 and not the samyang 135. This usually forces me to be more imaginative on the processing of the images of the 135, not only because they are a wider version of the master's target but also because they are not optimally framed...

In this case, the target for the Esprit-100 was the Triffid (https://www.astrobin.com/ng2fie/D/) but the resulting frame with the 135 was greatly framed (by pure luck) for the unusual target of the SH2-34, which is usually overshadowed by the Triffid and the Lagoon. But in this ocassion, there is the Triffid (small enough to not stand out) and a hint of the lagoon (to not dominate the set with its powerful signal), the result?  A nice set up, I believe, of this nebula Sh2-34 in the dense, colourful starfield of Sagittarius.  

I hope that you like it , 

Guillermo
