North America Nebula – NGC 7000

North America Nebula – NGC 7000

10.9 hrs on RASA 8 gave me this nice Cygnus wall and Pelican Nebula in the NGC7000. This is a LaSHO grouping of the images and really turned out pretty good for what I was trying to run with.

656 images with Baader f/2 ultra highspeed 2″ filters.
 
Ha used for luminance and all done in PhotoShop for post processing. Best part is I was able to sleep most of the time while it was imaging with the Observatory ?
