Description

Not much seems to be known about this obscure nebula.  Commonly known as the Propeller Nebula AKA Simeis 57, DWB 111.  It is a faint nebula which is a part of a much large nebula in the constellation of Cygnus.  I have always found this area interesting.  I may try some other compositions of this object in the future.
