About this image

Gave myself a challenge and this is round one on it.  This is 25 hours across 15 panels to capture the Cygnus molecular cloud highlights.  Shot with an OSC and rendered in false Hubble palette.  Hoping to do a recapture in RGB and then produce an HOORGB version.  I also blended in data from the RedCat and mono camera on the Crescent Nebula. Shot between 9th June and 28th June.
