Dark Nebulosity between NGC 7000 - The North America and IC 5070 - The Pelican Nebulae

This is the area between NGC 7000: The North America Nebula and IC 5070: The Pelican Nebula. It shows some interesting structures not typically shown in wide field images at this focal length. This is a crop of my wider 250mm image, however, it has been processed to highlight and colorize much of the activity around the darker nebulously. These are located in the Constellation Cygnus, around 1800 light years away.

Williams Optics Redcat 51 (250mm), ZWO 2600mm pro cooled to -10°C and Gain 100, ASIAIR, EAF, AM5, ZWO 36mm EFW, Antlia 3nm SHO filters. Shot from my backyard, Bortle 8 and processed in Pixinsight.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
