Description

This is image was stared as just test shot. The mount was playing "funny" games and decided to give a try of other target just to see how it will track in other part of the sky. Took a look above for idea... M17 or M8... M17 or M8... Let it be M8 as I have never imaged it in details - just part of wide fields... My jaw dropped on the first image. So much detail and structures in one image! Can't understand how have underestimated this object for so long time ?!?! Looks like this flirt can evolve in deeper feelings

I will try to make bi-color version before the end if its season.
