The Eagle Nebula

Constellation:	Serpens Cauda.
Best Seen:	Summer.
Telescopic Appearance:	The star cluster is easy to see. However I have yet to glimpse the surrounding nebula. The Eagle's low altitude from my location, coupled with city haze, does not help matters!
Photo Details:	A composite of two hour long shots on unhypered Elite Chrome 200 slide film, taken on 13/7/02 with the 11"SCT at f/10.
