    Good one, Mark!


    Must have taken a lot of tries before all three triplets were posed just so at the same time []

    Last night after observing a few galaxies with my telescope, everyone's favorite pair of summer nebulae rose from behind a tree, and I decided to try a quick picture. It is a far cry from what the serious guys get, but given that it was only a 2 minute exposure (I didn't polar align accurately and I was too sleepy to haul out the autoguider) and taken from my light-polluted back yard, it didn't turn out so bad.


    The field is just over 2 degrees, or a bit less than five full moons wide.

    Lagoon Nebula (M8) and Triffid Nebula (M20)


    5DII, Astrophysics 130GT + field flattener, 819mm @ f/6.3, 121 seconds unguided, ISO 1600


    The field flattener really seems to control those star images at the corners (this is almost the whole 35mm frame). And I spent $90 on a special EOS adapter which was supposed to control vignetting, and it seems to have worked.


    If I have the energy and time tonight, I'll try a longer exposure with the autoguider.
