Description

Yet another clear night. 13 x 1200s H-Alpha with a lot of moonlight.
No, it's not the Witch Broom! The bright star is 32 Cyg (mag 4).
There's another bright patch to the left of this, perhaps something for the coming night...

13 x 1200s added for the eastern part of this nebula

First try of a two tile mosaic, but I had big problems matching the frames, probably due to different sky conditions.
Thanks to this Youtube Video by Amy Astro, I figured out how to do it properly, see verison C.

Version D had the stars reduced a little bit, and version E is the starless version.

The final image is star reduced with Bill Blanshan's method, this works super simple!
