NGC 7000 - The North America Nebula II (Stellarvue SV66ED)

Skunk Hollow Observatory

NGC 7000 - The North America Nebula. Shot using a Stellarvue SV66ED piggybacked on top of a SuperCharged Meade LX200 10" with a SBIG ST-2000XM. 40 minutes (8 x 5 minutes) luminance at 1x1 binned. RGB 5:5:5 at 1x1 binned for each channel. Acquired using CCDOps. Dark frames applied. I have not made a light box for the SV66ED so I did not get to take flat fields. Self guided by SBIG ST-2000XM. Very little post processing. Transparency was better than average for my site. First full imaging night using the SV66ED. Used Adobe Photoshop to bring out some detail.
