Sketches

Cygnus Region Full of Stars and Dust


Recommended Posts

Here is a stacked image of a wide field shot of the Cygnus region. I was pleased with the amount of stars and dust visible with 7x30s exposures (no darks, flats or bias frames).

Enjoy!

I really like that you labelled the stars!

If you want a suggestion, I think flats could really help this image, and would probably only take you 30 min or so to figure out :)
Something to do if it's raining (like here) at any rate!

Thanks for the suggestion. I just did this for fun, but I  may put some extra time into it with some flats, maybe even a few darks:happy7:
