Description

The constellation Cygnus is full of interesting deep-space objects. My plan was to capture them all but with sufficient resolution. Therefore, I decided to use a focal length of 200 mm and go for a mosaic. This required a lot of time, to be precise 28 hours and 30 minutes - my longest integration time so far. The post-processing was also a tough job because the mosaic contains 3x4 frames, each 60 MP, yielding in final resolution 550 MP.
