Hello All

Another area in Cygnus rich in stars and colours. This one is not regularly imaged but contains a couple of very dark clouds which give a nice contrast to the starry background.

For full details see here: https://www.astrobin.com/6jdw5n/D/ (https://www.astrobin.com/6jdw5n/D/)

And check Mark Hanson's version here: https://www.hansonastronomy.com/dwb8 (https://www.hansonastronomy.com/dwb8) for what can be done from clear skies with a 17" telescope...
