Messier 17, commonly called the Omega or Swan Nebula, is one of the brightest nebulae in the night sky. Located in Sagittarius and is estimated to be 5,000 to 6,000 light years away. In better than Bortle 3 skies you can pick it out to the naked eye. Such a rich, complex and vivid deep space object.
ZWO Seestar S50 smart telescope. 10-second exposures with 950 seconds of total exposure time.
Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker. Processed in the following image processing applications for a handful of strong features/functions I like with each software: Siril, Photoshop and Lightroom.
