Description

ngc 6888 and PN G75.5 + 1.7 captured in Halpha and OIII for HOO combination and RGB for star color.
I changed my optical setup in removing the built flat field flattener because I noticed stars eccentricity and blur on the corner. I tried to reduce the problem of the built in flattener in moving it towards the triplet lens but it didn't improve the shape of the stars. It looks to be a bad flattener quality. As promised I bought a TS flat field flattener TSflat2" and the results are much better. To illustrate this, please look at the final revision.
