Description

And finally here ends my tour in the constellation of Cygnus. 

After the trips to Pickering's Triangle


and the Western Veil Nebula


I also took the eastern part. Besides all the awesome details, it's great to see these very faint H-alpha veils still visible in the upper part of the image, outlining almost the entire nebula complex. Well, now I know where the name "Veil Nebula" comes from.
