Description

M16 - certainly of the most famous nebula in the Northern Skies - primarily because of Hubble´s famous photograph of the Pillars of Creation. This is the result of the short night right after midsummer night - only 1,25 hrs night. Total exposure 65 subs at 180sec each - using most of the dawn time as well. L-extreme filter on QHY163C.
