Title: M16 Eagle Nebula 2018-08-05 Manche France

This was really low over a neighbours house and I only had 60 minutes of visibilty. 26x120s at unity gain -15c. Darks, Flats, Bias all fresh and shiny. I've made it as bright and colourful as I can, I can't imagine where some of the colours have popped up from but it's probably not the sky ;) Don't look too close either, may result in retinal overload :o

Wow - quite fantastic (literally).
I think you have got something here; the Andy Warhol of the skies!
This could give rise to a whole new genre of astrophotography.
