Description

My best shot for 2021 at the Cygnus loop, imaged over four short nights in the northern summer at 55 degrees (no astronomical dark).

Although I managed to accumulate nearly six hours of good subs, I am a little disappointed by the result. I found it quite challenging to process in PI as most of the
usual approaches I use did not work to improve the image.

Probably should have waited for proper darkness to return and or invest in a mono camera and 3nm NB filters.
