The Flying Dragon Sh2-114

The data was recorded on 22 and 23 September 2022 from my backyard.

Sh2-114 is a faint, but impressive, nebula visible in the constellation Cygnus.

Sh2-114 is a little studied nebula, with a filamentous appearance and apparently made up of several superimposed arched filaments; it has a semicircle shape with the concavity oriented towards the south and seems to constitute, together with the nearby cloud Sh2-113, visible near the left side of the image here, a bubble structure similar to a supernova remnant. However, no supernova remnant has ever been described in this region. (paragraph partially excerpted from Italian Wikipedia)

In the field is also present the tiny Planetary Nebula PK083-08.1, above Sh2-113, a small white blob with a bluish halo.

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.
