Sagitta & Vulpecula Milkyway

Hi all, Here is a lesser known area of the Summer Milkyway that's not observed as much as other area's, it's the constellations Sagitta and Vulpecula, smack bang in the middle between Altair and Cygnus. I manged to get a few shots last night under very good skies before the dew got me, I had to keep the exposure times down because light pollution would have got me as well

I'm dissappointed it's not brighter, I only got 13 shots and 10 darks at ISO800. I've labelled it as it does'nt look that spectacular on it's own, there's M27, the famous Dumbell Nebula, M71 - a lovely globular cluster, and the 'Coat Hanger' cluster which is superb in binoculars. You can see some dust lanes centre and upper centre also in this shot. I'll try for much better, and many more shots from a dark site one night to come...
Hope you like the view...

Jeeze Keith, you've captured some amount of stars there! Really nice shot! Well done!

Beautiful! Some nice dark nebulae running through there also.

I like the view!
Nice one Keith.
What kind of lens are you using there?

Another great shot Keith!

I've said it before but I'll say it agian ... I really like these wide-filed shots. It just puts things into perspective which is wonderful to be able to do from time to time.

For me, it is one of the best parts of the sky, great image Keith.
