Description

Wow, it's been almost four months since I acquired my previous image! Here's a classic summer target: the central part of the Cygnus constellation, with the Crescent Nebula in a sea of nebulosity, including the region around Sadr. Because of the short nights we have in Manchester at the moment, this is only a three-hour acquisition in HOO narrowband captured around midnight.
