Description

A widefield view of a section of Cygnus, centered around the Crescent Nebula (NGC 6888).

Over half of my subs had to be tossed due to passing clouds (again), but I'm happy with how this turned out with only an hour of total exposure. I was impressed with the performance of the Rokinon lens - I think I'm finally figuring out the best combination of aperture and ISO for this setup.

Description: Completely reprocessed this data from last year - it was way over-processed, and I wanted to apply the new PI tools. I also cropped it quite heavily to get rid of some odd-looking gradients that remained after processing.
