Description

M17 Closeup
This is another short one from last night after touching up the collimation.
The seeing was pretty good in the second half of the night and I needed a quick target so I decided to do the Omega nebula.
RGB with 8x4min. subs for each filter.
The image is a crop of the center in full 0.278"/pixel system resolution.
Hope you enjoy it.
