NGC6914

[astro mick]

Hi.

NGC6914 is located in Cygnus.It comprises of both Reflection and Emission Nebulae.The two Reflection Nebulae to the lower left are termed Vdb 132,and the fainter Nebulae just to the upper right is Vdb 131.To-gether with the faint emission Nebulae it is known as NGC 6914.

This was taken with my ED80 and Atik 314L+ ccd.

It is an LRGB image of approx. 2.0hrs per filter.

Calibrated with bias and flats.

Cheers.

Mick.

That's a really great area for imaging, and it looks at though you have some nice data.  Shame the two blue reflection nebulae are to one side of the FOV.

I should add that Ha added to this image will make a huge difference.  Plus there is a lot more nebulosity you can pull out of the existing image.

Carole,yes your proberbly right,but I do like the bright star cluster that is centre stage.To be honest I did,nt know their was an emission Nebulae present as well.

I also try not to overstretch my images,as it can go all wrong.Mick.
