Description:

It had been a long time since I wanted to challenge myself with a mosaic, and with the arrival of the summer sky, it was easy to point towards the constellation of Cygnus. So, I aimed my lens towards the North America and Pelican Nebulae. Initially, I wanted to exclude Deneb from my composition as my narrowband filters from Optolong don't handle such bright stars very well. However, considering the various combinations of frames, I liked the presence of the Cygnus's beacon, so I decided to include it, trying to manage it as best as I could. I hope you like the result. Clear skies to all
