Photo description / processing

The only nebula from the Sagittarius Trio that I hadn't re-shot. Guiding works poorly at such a low altitude, trees get in the way... In short, it was captured in spite of, not because of, the conditions. Because I love this trio of nebulae and the fourth one at the top.
