Description

That is a classic target for astrophotography in the summer time for the boreal hemisphere, this bright nebula are in the Serpens constellation
in the sud zone of the milk way. At her center ther's a cluster of young stars already know since the mid of 700' and subsequently called NGC6611.
Famous are the area of dusts, that swept by the stellar winds of the young stars of the cluster central, form the pillars of creation,
shapes that let us image a hand in the act of throwing a group of stars to the universe.

I shot from a mountain location under a sky bortle 4 dedicating four nights with the filter L-Enhance, SII and UV/IR cut for the stars.
It's a proven workflow and i seems to give good results. For now i don't see the need to switch to a mono camera, but who knows...
