Description

After 3 weeks and so much technical malfunctions, I am finally calling it quits on my latest project! Time to get some sleep!

The Pelican Nebula (also known as IC 5070 and IC 5067 ) is an H II region associated with the North America Nebula in the constellation Cygnus. The gaseous contortions of this emission nebula bear a resemblance to a pelican, giving rise to its name.
