Widefield of IC 1396, dark nebulae and Sh2 family

I would have liked/expected the DSLR to have been more "productive" in capturing the Hydrogen clouds (specially of IC1396 and Sh2-129) of this zone. I guess that I am getting spoilt by the results of H-alpha from the ZWO mono camera and that I will have to buy an adapter for the 135mm and the ZWO.... but in this case I wouldnt be able to be doing parallel sessions of Telescope and widefield with the 135mm.... ok then I'll be getting another asi1600 so i can capture with the scope and the widefield in parallel...hmm this vicious circle is worrying...

Anyway the canon did a good job capturing the dark nebulae and the starfield.

During the session high clouds rolled in and difuse some of the subs. I decided not to discard them in order to get a some halo around some stars, I like them in the starfields.

I guess that at some point I will retake this data and combine with new data coming from mono camera with h-alpha and OIII....but that will be another story!

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
