The Cygnus constellation and its dusty surroundings. While hiking, I found these cool rocks with Cygnus on top. At 50mm this is a target with so many details, but I’ve taken it so many times over the years that this time I wanted to do something different and capture the dust nearby. I took 4 panels with 4 hours of integration each. It surprised me how faint the dust in this area is, and another thing I wasn’t expecting was seeing so many tiny nebulae, like the Squid, Iris, Seahorse and Dark Scorpion nebulae, at this focal length.
