Description

NGC7000 North America Nebula

After a few goes at untracked astro, last night was the first clear night since my star tracker was delivered. This time taking all the calibration frame to avoid the gradients like last time. Very pleased with the result, and inspired with confidence to get even more detail for this target and others. Clear skies!
