Description

Eagle Nebula is one of those objects that is good at nearly any focal length. Long focal lengths can capture the intricate details of the Pillars of Creation, while wider fields like can easily pick up the pillars in the vast sea of nebulosity in the area. This object never gets particularly high in the southern sky here in New England, but it's always nice to image. This was my first attempt with BlurXterminator and I am quite impressed!
