About this image

Having unexpectedly captured the North America Nebula on my 50 mm exposures, I thought I would give it a try at 100 mm. Again stacked using Deep Sky Stacker and processed using IRIS (with a bit more help from Excel).

These are superb images, Clive. Your homemade drive is clearly technically excellent - the star images are nice and circular.
