Cygnus Wall
Cygnus Wall
NGC7000 is a pretty cool target with a huge nebula characterized as the North American nebula. Part of this structure is a wave or wall called Cygnus Wall. Near the start of Deneb in the constellation Cygnus, this light is about 2200 light years away.
This was captured using a 8″ Edge HD with Hyperstar and then the stars removed to showcase the dust and nebula swirling around in this beauty. I processed it in the Hubble color palette which really highlights the various areas and depth of it.
