These are two of the brightest DSOs in Cygnus. A great constellation to find interesting objects. It is up most of the summer for those of us in the Northern hemisphere.

Shot through a Canon 200mm L Lens with my ZWO ASI1600MM-Cool. Astrodon Filters: HA, OIII, and SII.

All Processing in PixInsight.

Color combination:
Red: 50% Ha 50% SII
Green: 50% Ha 50% OIII
Blue: 100% Oiii

Shot from Elkton, Maryland and Trap Pond State Park in Delaware.
