Description

I'm really enjoying my widefield setup. There are so many objects I can now image.  I've shot the Cygnus Wall and closeup of the Pelican head before but it's so nice to be able to fit everything in the frame. I had always thought of the North American and Pelican as separate objects but after spending time processing I view as a single complex now.

I stretched this SHO image using the Generalized Hyperbolic Stretch script and I'm slowly feeling more confident using it. I had tried it on SHO data before and had issues but that was my fault in the way I was trying to use it.
