Astrophotography HomeEAGLE NEBULA (M16)
PhotosIts been a long road to get to this point. I have finally achieved a decent astrophoto to share with you. The Eagle nebula is one of my favorite objects probably because of the Hubble Space Telescope shots. It is exciting to me that the defining structures so clearly displayed in the Hubble shots can be made out in this picture. Hopefully there will be more to come with longer exposure times and some composite shots.
