Description

This object required several attempts at processing. What eventually worked was a simple channel combination in Pixinsight. My attempts at a Hubble Palette in SHO were just bad: blotchy, dark nebula areas with strange colours, and off-colour stars. This version, though from narrowband (Ha, Sii, Oiii) data, is a bit closer to what a one-shot color camera would generate with a light pollution filter like the L-Enhance. 

This region in Cygnus is an extremely busy place, with huge populations of stars and nebulae of various types. Almost anywhere you point a scope here is going to catch something interesting.
