Often overlooked Cygnus..... vdB132
I thought I'd give this region a try because of its complex clouds and color. It is overlooked because of its more famous neighbors. I thought is would be relatively easy, ya know, blue clouds in a red field. I was wrong. I find this region to be very challenging to process without messing up the color. In fact I'm not sure if I even succeeded. The blue region is almost completely invisible in the Ha. All its details came from the RGB. Maybe I should add some clear filter data to this sometime...

Outstanding Tom, The color balance and processing is spot on. I think the reflection nebula will make a very interesting Hi-Res target...
Congrats, Ken Crawford www.rdelsol.com

Oh my! That is gorgeous.
I'm going to share this photo with some friends. The blue SO sets off the red. Or vice versa.  And all those suns...Quote:
