NGC 6960
From time to time I obtain data sets from remote observatories. One of my favorite providers is Deep Sky West with telescopes in Chile and New Mexico. One of the data sets I received, was data from NGC 6960, located in the constellation Cygnus.

The images were taken with the following equipment (DSW):
| Location | Rowe, New Mexico |
| Telescope | FSQ 106 |
| Focal length [mm] | 530 |
| Focal ratio | 5 |
| Mount | Paramount MyT |
| Camera | QSI 683 |
| Filter | R:G:B:Hα:[OIII] |
| Exposure time [min] | 60:65:60:680:500 |
| Resolution | 2,1″/px |
Data calibration and registration and the final processing was done with PixInsight.
The first image shows a HOO version:

For the next image I used the FORAXX palette.
