My first NB Image - NGC7000

[teoria_del_big_bang]

Not only is this my first NB image but really the first one I am remotely happy with. I know I still have a lot to learn, both with the imaging and more so I think with the processing side but, I also appreciate this is a pretty easy target but I am pleased with it as a start.

Also forgive me for the artificial diffraction spikes, I was just trying out the software and actually quite like them.

I did actually take images over two consecutive nights, whilst on holiday at a lovely spot in Suffolk stopping in a log cabin. However, I had real issues quiding for the first night which I cured the following evening. Originally I stacked all the images but when I looked at the subs the unguided ones were all pretty poor with elongated stars so this is subs from the second night and only a few. This is a fairly quick process so will have another go when I get home. 

Comments and suggestions for improvement welcome, I am pretty thick skinned.

Nice image and very well framed.

Indeed I would be more than happy if I,d done that.
