Description

Just a little North and East of the Star Sadr, in Cygnus, are emission and reflection nebulae  LBN 251, LBN 239, LBN 243, and open cluster IC 1311

At the far, lower right of the image, to the right of the bright star in IC 1311, is a very tiny blue disk.  This is a recently discovered (2006) planetary nebula, PN G077.6+04.3, with an apparent diameter of just 45"
