Description

This image of the North America Nebula was almost a whim.  Waiting for a target to get above the trees in my bortle 6 backyard, I captured several narrowband images of the nebula at 600 seconds.  I took one image each of Ha, Oiii and Sii and aligned, stacked and post-processed in Pixinsight. No calibration files, just 3 light frames for a total integration time of 30 minutes. I liked how it turned out so I thought I'd post it.
