Default Astro:My best image of the year, so far: M27

I decided at the last minute last night to drive to Taylorsville Lake
because I wanted to get one last imaging session in this week before the
weather turned bad. For a change, everything worked pretty well, and I got a
really good set of images of Messier 27. I Just got done processing them,
and here is the result:
