The North America nebula

Two hours worth of 5 minute RAW FITS exposures of NGC 7000, The North America nebula, were captured with AstroDMx Capture with William Optics 81 mm ED APO refractor with a 0.8 flattener/reducer and an Altair magnetic 2" filter holder with an Altair Quadband filter and an Altair Hypercam 533C 14 bit OSC CMOS camera. 

The RAW images were debayered, calibrated and stacked in PixInsight with further processing being done in GraXpert, Starnet++, the Gimp 2.10 and ACDSee.
