First image of the new season

North-American and Pelican nebula imaged on the night of September 2, during a few hours of nautical/astronomic twilight in Tromsø. I opted for "mono" 12nm-filter as there was still a lot blue in the Arctic autumn twilight night sky. Seeing conditions were unusually stable compared to the usual turbulent atmosphere on the coast of northern Norway. Auroral activity was also quite low.
