The Trifid Nebula | The Trifid Nebula (M20) is part of the so called Saggitarius Triplet and sits in the middle of the center of our galaxy. It is an unusual combination of an open cluster of stars, an emission nebula (the reddish-pink part), a reflection nebula (the blue portion), and a dark nebula (the apparent 'gaps' in the former that cause the trifurcated appearance, also designated Barnard 85 from Wikipedia).

This is the natural colour palette. Normally I am of the opinion that we amateur astro photographers are more into doing art than science - so the colour is a little bit of artistic freedom. espescially when doing narrow band imaging. However this object is really beautiful and I had enough high quality broadband data so I decided to spectro photometric colour calibrate it to get the coulors as natural as possible.

Shot only with an IR-UV blocking filter from Kiripotib in Namibia. - Realized with Pictrs.com
