Trifid and Lagoon Nebs with the Sigma lens

Hi all,

here's another image from last night - the Trifid and Lagoon Nebs. It was taken with the Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 APO + a 1.4x telextender. Thus 200 x 1.4 x 1.6 = 448mm f4.

The transparancy last night was bad - high humidity, chimney smoke?, high cloud etc so the sky looks a little brown...

A larger image can be seen at:
