M16 - The Eagle Nebula
Also known as "The Hand of God" or "Fingers of Creation".
8000 Light Years Away

10" Meade LX200GPS at f/3.3
10 frames x 30 seconds with DSI-C

I wasn't really expecting to take this shot as M16 was gettting ready to set for the night when I took this. So, I didn't have a chance to take darks or very many exposers. Still, I was pretty happy for such a hurried shot. I'll revisit this target next summer.
