Description

Imaging more amazing stuff in Cygnus!  These blue nebula sure can use more focal length then this wider field with my 102GT (no reducer).  Yes I worked on the dark structures to bring them out.   I used a OSC camera and then strongly blended Ha from the Antlia dual narrowband after extracting using APP.  I'm more than pleased from bortle 7.  

from wikipedia:  NGC 6914 is a reflection nebula located approximately 6,000 light-years away in the constellation of Cygnus, and was discovered by Édouard Stephan on August 29, 1881. Ultraviolet radiation from stars in the Cygnus OB2 association ionize the nebula's hydrogen.
