Another gem from the Sharpless Catalogue, SH 114. This is an extremely delicate HA region which is part of the complex hydrogen alpha network in the Cygnus region.
Extremely faint, I have captured 16x1200s of data on the 8 inch newtonian to create this picture.
I sometimes fancy the structure looks like a footbridge over a river against a background of rolling hills. Some might say it looks more like a bunch of seagulls
