Default NGC 6946 - Fireworks Galaxy in Cepheus

Dear group,

This little galaxy in Cepheus has the honour of having hosted eight
supernovas and it is my understanding that it ranks #1 in this regard.
For an image based on five hours total exposure (LRGB @ 120:60:60:60)
from a few days ago, I kindly direct you to http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-DSO-NGC-6946.htm
.... there is a slight gradient on the right edge of the image which I
must address.

Hope you like it ...

Anthony.
