Cygnus the Swan

There is a lot happening in this image. Among the "happenings" are the

North American and Pelican nebulae in the upper left. The star, Gamma

Cygni and its associated nebula are centered and the wispy supernova

remnant known as the Veil Nebula is visible in the lower left. This is

a larger version of the image that I posted earlier. Thanks for viewing.

Another hit, William. Beautifully captured.

Just out of curiosity, do you use the SBIG for these, or mount another camera to your telescope?

Your kind words are appreciated. TM--for this image, I piggybacked the Mamiya to my C8 and manually guided the exposure. I use my original ST-4 for guiding my Takahashi scope but not for image capture.
