Description

Here's a classic summer target, the surroundings of alpha Cygni Deneb with its H-a strong emission. Rather than a proper project, it was more a test for the Skywatcher Star Adventurer and the Samyang 135mm lens...I had forgotten how hard is to centre a target without a GoTo mount! It took me about an hour to frame properly the image so in the end, I've collected just an hour for each Ha and OIII filter. I'm very happy with the Samyang lens, I've used it at f/3.3 and it's still brilliant. I've mapped the Ha to Red and OIII to blue. Initially, I mapped the green channel as Ha/OIII 50/50 to get a more natural colour of the stars, even though in the end I pushed the colour balance to red. All in all very happy with the result!
