Description

July 2016 and Sep 2018 – This image is a panoramic stitch of NGC7000 (North America Nebula), it consists of four panels captured with H-Alpha filter, it all started in July 6, 2016 where I captured all four panels (20subs each panel at 120sec) from East-Ann Arbor MI, fast forward two years later I decided to process the image and because I didn’t capture a lot of subs my final image was noisy so I decided to collect more subs in Sep 2018 at Gladwin Star Party as well as from my backyard at West Bloomfield, my final subs for each panel were 65subs which were more than enough.

Equipment used are Celestron EdgeHD 9.25” Hyperstar with ZWO ASI1600MM-Cool and Astronomik 12nm H-Alpha filter, and processed them using PixInsight and Photoshop.

Because this subject was straight up in the sky and captured with H-Alpha filter it helped a lot not to capture a lot of light pollution from a red zone area.
