North America Nebula and Pelican Nebula in Narrowband Ha/OIII

Revision title: HOO version

Imaged the North American Nebula (NGC 7000) on October 17/18/19/27, 2021 and and Pelican Nebula (IC 5070) on 10/12/19j, 2021. Final image is a two panel mosaic from this data. This is my first imaging session with the AT60 and the paired focal reducer. I originally purchased the AT60 for white light solar imaging since it has a comparable FL to my Lunt50. I noticed that the AT60 paired with its focal reducer gives a comparable focal length to the popular William Optics Redcat (288 mm FL for the AT60/FR, WO Redcat50 250 mm FL) which makes for some nice wide field images. I'm very happy with this initial result and will be using this for my primary deep sky imaging setup this fall/winter.

Imaged with Astrotech AT60 at F4.8 (288 mm focal length) using Astrotech ATRF60 field flattener/0.8x reducer, Optolong L-Enhance dual narrowband filter, and full spectrum modified Nikon D5300. Total integration time of ~7 hours for each panel of the mosaic:
NGC 7000: 83 subs at ISO400 x 300 se.
IC 5070: 79 subs at ISO400 x 300 sec

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
