Description

I used a small telescope and full-frame camera combo which allowed me to frame the entire Cygnus Loop into a single field of view without having to do a mosaic.

I also did not bother shooting with the Sulfur II filter, and only combined the Hydrogen Alpha and Oxygen III data. I really like the bright blue and red colors.
