Description

The Cygnus wall is part of the emission nebula known as the North America Nebula. Constructed from narrowband image data, the close-up maps emission from sulfur, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms to red, green, and blue colours. The result highlights the bright ionization front.

There is a star in the upper left hand corner that shows a lot of red around it. I checked my subs on all three channels and it seems to only emit in SII. Don't know if it is associated with the star or a cloud in the foreground. I found it interesting.
