Description

The Propeller Nebula in Cygnus, also known as DWB 111 and Simeis 57 is an HII region in Cygnus. It is part of the Cygnus Molecular cloud near gamma cygni.  I used my mini-portable setup for this on the few clear nights we've had this summer.  This is approximately 10 hours of data obtained with the L-Extreme filter through a Redcat 51. I'm pretty happy with the result given the small instrument and limited nights this summer.

Description: Used the new PSF Signal algorithm in Pixinisight and also drizzled the data. Reprocessed to bring out more nebulosity and better noise control.
