Description

North eastern part of the constellation Cygnus. In the center of the image is the North American and Pelican Nebulas, with their vast clouds of hydrogen gas. Towards the right side we see the bright star Sadr and surrounding Hydrogen regions glowing various shades of Red and amber. Through out the image are hints of brown, indicating vast amounts of dust floating in space.
At the very bottom of the image, just visible in the frame is the Veil Nebula with its red and blue-green flowing filaments.
