Description

In this second target of the night, the Trifid Nebula or Messier 20 or M20 and as NGC 6514, until then, I had not yet paid attention to its details until I started to do the processing, and I realized that the Trifid is rich in beauty and details, and in this position I was able to see a winged creature similar to a bat. As for the colors, I decided to leave them as my optical kit gave me.

After the processing was complete, I showed it to my 12-year-old grandson Gabryel and he said it looked like an eagle with its prey. So, as I didn't see any reference to this nebula, I decided to add it to the title as an eagle carrying its prey.
