The Trifid Nebula using my telescope and camera from a Bortle Class 4 site!

The Eagle Nebula 📸

I photographed this target with my usual equipment, the Skywatcher 150P and an unmodified Canon EOS 4000D.
Total Exposure: 4 hours 30 minutes

The Eagle Nebula is visible to the naked eye on the best nights under dark skies, while in my area which is Bortle 4.5 (just below moderate light pollution), I can see it with the naked eye and with a telescope I can see a faint glow of the nebula. For the best observation of the object, I recommend O III and Ha filters which will show some details invisible in the visible light spectrum through a telescope or long exposure photography as I did now.
