NGC 6888

[Rodd]

This is a mystery to me.  This image has 1 hour of data (12 300 sec Ha).  I don't understand  why it looks so nice.  Generally, I need copious data to avoid a  stippley  background. But not so in this case. Conditions were not great, as is common, and the Moon was about 75%.      I botched the framing somewhat, as I wanted the soap bubble and the Crescent to be displayed. The soap bubble can just be seen near lower left margin.  
TOA 130 with ASI 1600. 1 hour Ha.

I added 2 hours for a running total of 3.  I certainly have not reached the point of diminishing returns yet - at least not with this data.  The soap bubble at lower left is starting to materialize.

Thanks! I tend to forget how much satisfaction there is in imaging in decent seeing.
