Trifid Nebula 4-7-2008 with QHY8

A compiled image of the Trifid Nebula taken from my backyard Observatory in Mt Beauty during a gap in the clouds.
Sorry to post another image of trifid but I had to grab the chance while the clouds parted.

The image is a compilation of 10 X 5 minute images + 5 X 10 min images with flats. No darks were taken or used.
Telescope: Takahashi FS 102
Camera: QHY8
Guided with Skywatcher ED80 and QHY5 with PHD.

Images were processed using Images Plus and finished off with Photoshop.
The image has been cropped to fill the Picture.

I Hope you enjoy.
