The complex system of dark nebulae and molecular clouds north of NGC 7000 also known as Barnard 352 or LDN 941.
In reality, the region is home to a large number of individual compact structures, often only perspectively aligned and backlit against the star fields or plasma that makes up the larger NGC 7000.
PGCC G086.46+00.19 is a molecular cloud home to low mass star formation [A&A 594, A28 (2016)]. PGCC stands for Planck Catalog of Galactic Cold Clumps.
DOBASHI objects are dark nebulae reported in the Atlas and Catalog of Dark Clouds Based on the 2 Micron All Sky Survey compiled by Kazuhito Dobashi [Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, Volume 63, Issue sp1, 25 January 2011].
[DBY94] 086.4+00.4 is another molecular cloud occupying a small dense region.
[DB2002b] G86.20+0.00 is the characteristic backlit dark ring over North America and appears to surround NGC 6996, a small OB stellar association, reported by E. Barnard in 1927 in his A photographic Atlas of selected regions of the Milky Way. As a region of recent star formation, there are a number of YSOs, i.e. still shrinking young stellar objects.
E26 is a bubble associated with the young star V2713 Cyg with a clear shock front.
The image is part of a large mosaic obtained with a 300mm telephoto lens array from Piano Visitone in the Pollino National Park.
