M8 - The Lagoon Nebula
This shot
was originally a set of 40 subs taken with the Hyperstar 3 equipped
Nexstar 11GPS on 4/20/09, and then I added another 87 subs to the stack
on 7-21-09. On both evenings, it was shot under the light polluted
skies of Tempe, Arizona.
The
camera used was the modified Canon Rebel 1000xs. This image is a stack
of 8, 10, and 12 second IS0-1600 subs aligned using Registar and then
stacked in Nebulosity 2. M8, the Lagoon Nebula is also known as NGC
6523.
