M27 Dumbbell nebula

This is the M27 Dumbbell nebula in the starsign Vulpecula (small fox). It is a planetary nebula. It was discovered by Messier in 1764 and the first of its kind ever discovered.
It is 1250 thousand light years away from us.
I selected this picture from a series of 20 I made, this one was 2min with ISO1600
