Messier 27 (OSC)

Messier 27, also known as the dumbbell nebula is one of the brightest planetary nebulae in the sky. It is a favorite among amateur astronomers.

This image is, unfortunately, grossly overexposed, at least with respect to the stars. I blew out almost all the star color though it did bring out lots of nice detail in the nebula itself.

Here is the astrobin link to m27
