What a night,NGC 6914 CYGNUS

[CELESCOPE]

Well yes what a night, but CLEAR!!! , this is an image of nebulosity in Cygnus,as you can see plenty going on there, first of all i had an hour of subs , but the focusser slipped . whilst i was indoors , so lost all the subs , , done another lot , then for some reason the Atik ccd being a funny shape came up against the tripod leg ?? so lost 15 subs , but anyway still pleased with the result , wanted at least 90 mins of exposure but ended up with just under 60mins,

Taken with the ED80, H-ALPHA FILTER, Atik 16HR, processed in Maxim DDP at 2%, finished in PS.

Can I ask that you post the individual sub lengths in your submissions? (just us lesser mortals have an idea)

[CELESCOPE]

I think I need to sacrifice a goat or something to ever see clear skies again

A worthy result after your troublesome imaging session last night.

The first time I 've seen an image of that one!!
