The North America Nebula, also ✨ NGC 7000 ✨. I captured it about a year ago using DSLR but decided to finally pull the trigger and get the narrowband filters.

These Sulfur-2, Hydrogen-alpha and Oxygen-3 filters allowed me to recreate the Hubble telescope color palette (as seen on the famous Pillars of Creation image).

Reprocessing the North America Nebula and Pelican Nebula from May 2023

I wasn't very happy with my processing of the NGC 7000 region from earlier this year, so I had another go at it.

North America Nebula and Pelican Nebula

After almost a year and a half, it was time to bring out my old primary lens for astrophotography: The trusty Tamron 70-200mm. But the image was giving me a hard time in an unexpected way.

#SkyWatch #Astrophotography #NGC7000 aka the #NorthAmerica Nebula (on the left) and #IC5070 aka the #Pelican Nebula(on the right) is a large hydrogen emission area 2500 light years away near #Deneb, the brightest star in the #Cygnus constellation. They appear as two separate nebula because of a ridge of dark space dust that blocks the light from everything behind it. This image is 64 five-minute exposures captured May 18-19 with my 250mm lens. #StillLearning

North America Nebula. #ngc7000 #astrophotography #astrofotografie

#NGC7000 , the North America Nebula, in this orientation it easy to see why its named so, surely a coincidence that it resembles the shape of the0 North American continent?
It's an emission nebula and star forming nursery in the brighter parts, especially the Cygnus Wall.
At 2590 light years away, close to Deneb in the constellation of Cygnus and covers an area ten times larger than the moon but its not very bright.

One of my most favourite regions in the #nightsky: The region around #NGC7000 (North America Nebula). Tons of work were needed here. this is a 2x2 mosaic acquired in RGB and narrowband HA-OIII. Several nights of acquisition were needed. #astrophotography

NGC 7000 North America Nebula

Magnitude 4.0 emission nebula located 2,590 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus. The shape of the nebula resembles that of the continent of North America, complete with a prominent Gulf of Mexico. The portion of the nebula resembling Mexico and Central America is known as the Cygnus Wall. This region exhibits the most concentrated star formation.
