The Eagle Nebula

I've been out back in the Sierra Nevada doing some astronomy. This is just something I threw together as part of a bigger project.

The whole sky timelapse is done with a canon, with a 4mm sigma lens with about 1minute exposures.

The close- ups were done with a 50-135 mm zoom, with the final exposure being done with a canon at prime focus of a cpc1100

Wow. Such arguments and accusations on a 37 second video. I'm going to become rich and famous when I invent a device that allows you to stab people in the face over the Internet. :)
