IC 1618 in Cygnus

With a CCD and a wide field scope I soon discovered that it was easy
to obtain an attractive images of the nebulosity in Cygnus. I also
rapidly realised that the quality and quantity of the detail I could
obtain in my images depended a great deal on the subsequent image
processing. This animation shows what I mean.

For me its a lot easier to compare images if i can see them at the same
time. I notice there are more and more animations to "compare this" or see
the "before and after", not only in astronomy but in other unrelated areas
too. If I am to compare I just cant do it that way.

In the past people have said that having to scroll down to see the
different pictures was a problem and that an animation would be
better. I agree with you but I guess we are not in the majority.
