In this DSLR astrophotography video I set up the NEW TELESCOPE for a night of deep-sky imaging from the backyard! Tonight's target is M20 - The Trifid Nebula. I also share a few DSLR astrophotography tips including how to keep dew and moisture from fogging up your telescope, and a useful piece of software to help plan your night of imaging: Trifid Nebula Photo Details: Total Exposure Time: 2 Hours 54 Minutes (58 x 3 min) Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker using Darks, Flats and Bias Frames Processed in Adobe Photoshop Facebook Page ➝ https://www.facebook.com/astrobackyard/ Learn My Technique ➝ http://astrobackyard.com/ Images captured on August 2, 3, 8 2016.
