Description

The Cygnus Wall is located in the southern part of NGC7000 - The North America Nebula. It is one of the highest concentrations of star formations in the region and is located approximately 1,500 light years from Earth at a declination of 43° 32’.

This is the second time I have imaged the Cygnus Wall. The first time was within 6 months of starting with astrophotography and I (obviously) made lots of mistakes. I always wanted to return to this object and give it another go. This week, with new equipment and a full moon to the south, I decided this was the time.

As always, I appreciate your comments and criticisms.
