M-17 Deep Exposure.
Meade LXD75 8" f/4 SN
Hand guided 80mm f/12 refractor
45 minutes on Fujicrome 400 Provira
No computer/dark room editing
No filters, uncropped

This shot of M-17 is unusual in that I exposed way longer than most, to grab the most faint details in this Ha Nebula. The Swan or Omega symbol is almost totaly gone, but the 3D effect of the whole nebula is fantastic!
