Description

To celebrate July 4, 2020 - the North America nebula in my still-learning quasi-Hubble narrowband! Still can't quite get the color mix I wanted, but this one seems to work. Moved back to PixInsight for the color mixing after struggling with APP for that. Some bizarre gradients not really addressed except through cropping will have to wait until I get some flats done to see if that can help. (e.g., 0III has really strong vignette but others don't?) Nice to be able to shoot at nearly a full moon though.
