Messier-17 is the “Swan” or “Omega” Nebula. Consider it our galactic neighbor at 11k light years distance. #messier #messierobjects #objetmessier #messier17 #omeganebula #swanebula #m17 #astrophotography #astrophotograhie #astronomiefrance #astronomie (at Parc Peixotto Talence) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRuObX7n7fF/?utm_medium=tumblr

Messier-8 is the Lagoon Nebula. At 4000 light years distance, it is very close on a galactic scale. I photographed Messier-8 from my balcony in Talence France over three nights in July 2021. #messierobjects #objetmessier #messier8 #lagoonnebula #astronomy #astronomie #astrophotography #astrophotographie (at Parc Peixotto Talence) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRhT6H9Ht05/?utm_medium=tumblr
