Cygnus Wall Complex
The Cygnus Wall complex is a vivid skyscape of interstellar gas - a huge star forming region inside the North America nebula. I shot the closeup using my 8” scope.
This nebula displays the typical reddish glow associated with ionized hydrogen but also includes dark, dusty sections that obscure the background star field.
The picture is the result of over three hours of data, a long but satisfying night under the stars.
