Description

Cygnus is on its way, flying... um... West? for the winter, but I couldn't say goodbye without shooting a widefield. I would have liked more integration on this but it drops below 30 degrees and toward a particularly bad light dome for me about 1:30am. More days would be great, but we're getting ~1 clear night a week right now.

This was also a test of the Starizona ApexED-S I got because I liked the -L so much. It worked well, but I think I need to tweak the back focus a bit (I was at 55mm and I probably need to be at 59-60mm).

This is rendered in my usual PixelMath version of HOO that mixes the Ha and Oiii for the green channel.
