Description

I was able to image the Lagoon and Trifid. They have a fairly short window for me each year. Luckily we had some clear nights and I was able to get them with the RASA and ASI071MC-Pro. There is an absolutely amazing amount of stars since this is in the core of the Milky Way. Beautiful to see so many stars, but difficult to process. This has been difficult to see if I have processed the colors correctly. Any thoughts are appreciated.
