Description

The Crescent Nebula NGC 6888 from my light polluted front yard. 58 minutes total exposure time. Very pleased with the modified Nex-5.

Rev.B Reduced star sizes and intensity to bring out more of the nebula. Worked on background. Worked on red channel for more Ha definition.

Rev.C Brightened stars and nebula. I think I like this version better then B.
