Description

The data for this image was acquired over a few warm but pleasant July evenings, no wind and only a few clouds, mostly clear.  Also, no equipment issues  this time, everything went smoothly and I'm pleased with the result.  I did HOO processing with RGB stars, kept it simple with only a little noise reduction.  I included the Soap Bubble Nebula in the title, it’s very dim and hard to see but it’s there...barely, below and a bit to the right of the Cresent.
