NGC 7000 area

[Yoddha]

Hello,

Here is another image of this well photographed area of the sky. Hope that you like it.

Images params are : 1000D modified, AstroTrac 320X, Samyang 85/1.4 at f/4, ISO 800, 18x3min, darks and biases, APT 1.60 . The date is 25th August.

I hoped to make longer exposures at faster f-ratio but the sky didn't allow anything better. Have to try the setup on darker site...

That's stunningly beautiful... and nicely processed, the stars don't overpower the nebulae etc.

Really crisp detail too... must be a very nice lens :-)

Thanks Ben!

So far I'm happy with these lens. At f/4 there are slight aberrations, but nothing that Noel's pack can't remove. I need to try it on really dark sky at f/2.8 and f/2 to see what is the performance.

BTW just updated the bigger version with better image
