There are several interesting objects on this picture. First of all - NGC 7000 known as America Nebula ( left side of picture), than IC 5070 Pelican Nebula ( right bottom quarter). There are three open cluster here but only one NGC 6997 connected with the nebulas. You can see it right in the middle of the picture where Niagara Falls supposed to be smile There is also dark nebula LDN 935 separating America from Pelican. And of course "Cygnus Wall" - very nice part of nebula located where California state suppose to be smile Distance to this complex nebula is about 2000 ly. The beautiful blue reflex ( upper right part of the picture) coming from Deneb- alpha Cygni.
FSQ-106N. STL11k, EM-11.
