Hi all, smile
Well, this month I got some good conditions and managed to snag two images. This is my first one, NGC-7000, The Wall and Gulf.
This is in LRGB and my first attempt at this object in color, so it was a bit of an experiment to figure out how to capture it and show details.
So, here is my attempt an this, hope you like it. Next I will post my NGC-6914.

Now my secound image for the month, NGC-6914 in LRGB. This one was a bit more of a challenge, it is fainter and has a lot of dark nebula embedded in the area. So, I tried to bring out as much as I could without over cooking the image.

Again, click the image for the larger version which is 1/2 scale of the original, the largest I am allowed to post in the gallery.
