Description

I love this field, for its sheer simplicity and unexpected objects.  With a near full moon and few other suitable bright sky targets, I found NGC 7790 as a potential target in the N.I.N.A. Sky Atlas.  Playing with the framing suggested there were other interesting objects and I was really caught off guard by what processing revealed.  The colorful nebulosity NGC 7822 was an interesting surprise. This was a 2-panel mosaic, with 140 exposures in the first panel and 150 in the second.
