The Eagle Nebula
This past Friday evening the sky conditions were the best they've been in months. Couldn't pass up the chance to try imaging some of the nebulae in the Sagittarius/Scutum area of the Milky Way. This region is low in the southern sky, and from my location just NW of Baltimore, there is a lot of light pollution to deal with. However, the moon had set, the sky was very transparent, and I had to go for it. So, here is the Eagle Nebula, a loose star cluster with associated nebulosity throughout.
