Here is my version of the Lagoon. I consider this to be a tricky and hard target.

Hi Greg,

Tricky, yet rewarding. As bright as this nebula is, it's also amazing how much detail can be gathered with relatively short exposures. Um... what is your exposure data for this?

And BTW, I really like your treatment in this image!

Nice Lagoon Greg. Despite it being an often imaged object I never get tired of seeing it. It's a tough one to process well. You did excellent.
