Description

I've imaged NGC7000 and IC5070 (North America and Pelican) nebulae for years now. It's a wide target, relatively easy to find with Deneb to guide the way, and beautiful at short and long exposures. It's character changes between broadband and narrowband light. Last night I set out to image it once more, not sure if I would use the standalone data, image for a few days or combine with other session. After processing last night's data I can safely say that I've got the data I wanted and am very happy with this version of the target that blends the broadband and narrowband characteristics. I process RGB normally and SHO as the hubble palette,  then integrated them with PixelMath.
