#SkyWatch #Astrophotography The #PelicanNebula aka #IC50870 is a large hydrogen emission nebula in the #Cygnus area of the MilkyWay. Cygnus 57 is a binary star about 530 light years from Earth while Cygnus 56 is a double star about 135 light years away. I'm kind of disappointed in this image since it is my longest exposure yet (about 6 hours captured two nights ago under good stargazing conditions) but I wasn't able to pull much of the red out of the nebula. #StillLearning
