M 27

I finally got an M 27 worth posting.
It's taken me a while. As with a lot of things, it wasn't so much the destination as the journey; I learned much along the way.

Thanks for looking,

Dan,
Super image!

Looks like some guys over at QCUIAG (yahoo.groups) have found a nova 20th , 21st of August. I don't know exactly when you got your image, but what they are seing is clearly not in yours. Your depth which seems pretty good may even show the pre-nova star if that's what it turns out to be.
