Cyguns Mosaic (4) Panes color

Most of last month was spent collecting the data for this mosaic. A total of (60) subframes at 20 minutes each or 20 hours of integration. using a 12" focal length F/4 astrograph. SHO+ StrY filters were used.

The mosaic covers roughly 6X10 degrees. The image includes SNR G82.2+5.3, Pelican Nebula, Sadr nebula area, NGC6888 and the Soap Bubble to name a few.

North is to the left...

Hi Dave- I cannot believe the detail and color of this image. Words fail me when I try to describe the beauty of this image. Thanks for being a good friend.

Thanks; beautiful! Just last night I was scanning that area with giant binos + Night Vision + 12nm Ha. Sketched what looked like dark nebls around Sadr. Your image helps ID what I saw. I don't know if that is dark nebl, gaps in the emission or combination. The very narrow band is certainly revealing of stuff we normally can barely see. COMMENT: I have edited what was a comma to be a semicolon... YIKES!

That is a beautiful image, Dave.

It's wonderful when it all comes together after collecting all that data!
