Pelican Nebula (IC 5070)

ATIK Color Horizon (OSC) camera and Hutech HEUIB-II filter with a Sky-Watcher 190 Mak-Newt (1000mm f/5.3) on a Celestron CGEM DX mount, unguided.

Processed in PixInsight, Photoshop and Lightroom. All subs were processed as 32 bit images.

The image was processed from subs. I obtained essentially nothing from the Live Stack!

Enjoy!

Really, Really Beautiful Brian!
Atik should be buying those images from you.
I went to your flicker account as well.
Was there some reason you did not make this one downloadable?

Been without Internet until now. Somebody damaged a fiber Optic cable and wiped out service until they fixed it.
Probably a loose nut on a back-hoe.

Might begin getting some clear skies here. It's been nights and nights of crap here.
Of course, now that the Moon is getting glaringly bright, the clouds will go away.
I think I'll try mounting my telescope tonight. Just to see if I remember how to....

I still like the subtle one...

Kinda like admiring a woman and wondering what is under the clothes... Trying to use Xray vision...

Versus a centerfold and nothing left to the imagination...

(You still didn't check the box. ) LOL!

I like them both.
Sonny’s just upset because you and I can play but he has to stay inside.
