Description

The area around Deneb in Cygnus is dominated by the Northamerica and Pelican Nebula. The „Clamshell Nebula“ (Sh2-119), located next door to those two classics, is often overlooked, though it has so much interesting and fascinating detail and structure to offer. So, I decided to capture it and do a colorful SHO version with RGB stars. Hope you like it!
