NGC 6888



A clear spot at last gave me the opportunity for an attempt at NGC 6888 (The Crescent Nebula) in Cygnus. Back to the main scope for this one though I might try the apo on it later as there is a lot of nebulosity in the general area. Although the moon got increasingly bright through the session and a patch of cloud halted things for a while I got a good number of subs to work with. Details: 10" F4.3 Newtonian 14x 7 minute exposures @ iso800 with CLS in DSS, CS2 & Nebulosity.
