Description

Eagle and lagoon Omega nebulae. I can only really shoot this bit of the sky in May, when it is above my horizon and between obstructions for about 90 minutes each night. By the time astronomical dark returns it'll be out of sight behind trees. I've run out of time to get any RGB stars this season, so just desaturated the SHO stars to stop them looking too weird.

[Title edited to make it look less confusing. I got confused between Lagoon and Omega nebulae when I was shooting this. I think the Lagoon is probably too low on the horizon to be practical for me.]
