ASTRO: Pelican Nebula Skywatcher ED80

Hi folks,

Here is a recent image of IC5067, Pelican Nebula in Cygnus. This was taken
on September 10th 2007 using a Skywatcher ED80 refractor, Starlight Xpress
SXV-H9 with Astronomik HAlpha and RGB filters. The H-alpha frame was a stack
of 24x5min exposures at 1x1 binning, and the RGB frames were stacks of
3x5min exposures at 2x2 bin. All the images were autoguided using a
Celestron Ultima 9.25 and PHD Guiding. Processing was done in AstroArt 4.

Clear skies

Very nice image David.
The small pixels of the SXV-H9 and the ED80 complement each other well.
