Description

This was a "junk" target, as I have done the Cygnus Loop before, but I have been using dark time before other targets are in position to collect data from the Loop, but camera angles were set for the "real" targets so this mosiac is oddly shaped.

I also thought I would process it differently, trying the "Modified Bicolor Technique for combining Ha and OIII images" here: http://www.starrywonders.com/bicolortechniquenew.html but my conclusion is that is really meant for non "bi color" targets.

I did manage to get some green, however, which I turned to gold, so there you have it.
