This is a shot overhead of the Constellation Cygnus. How many different nebulae can you see?
North American & Pelican - Easy.
Can you spot the Veil and Crescent?
It's amazing what a 28mm lens will show!

Nice shot, Pete. What f/stop was the 28 mm lens set at and what was your naked eye limiting magnitude?
