The photo below is of Neptune and its moon Triton taken on 10/14/2008 using the Mewlon at
~ f/40. Near IR (740nm) was used as the lum layer on the RGB image to minimize the over
exposure of the planet

This photo of the reflection nebula(s), NGC6914, a couple degrees north of Gamma Cygni, in Cygnus, consists of
three components. The components of the nebula are 6914, the second component is 6914A, a third component,
6914B is just out of the lower edge of the frame. All are enclosed by a multitude of emissions nebulas that are
found within a few degrees of this location (the NA and Pelican nebula are a few degrees to the north west).
The Photo details: SXV-H9 on 10" SPX newt @ f/4.8 (8+ hrs exposure), collected and initial processing in MaximDL,
final processing in Photoshop CS2
Lum: 25 X 8 min unbinned; R: 30 X 3 1/2 min binned 2X2; G: 28 X 3min binned 2X2; B: 30 X 3 1/2 min binned 2X2
