The North America Nebula  NGC 7000  is an emission nebula visible in the constellation Cygnus, located  near Deneb.  The shape of the nebula resembles the North American continent
The most recognisable detail is the “Cygnus Wall”, outlined by a strong H-alpha emission, the reddish part.
This image is the result of two photographic sessions, one broadband and one narrowband, for a total of almost 30 hours, a combination of two l-quef and l-para filters to amplify the signal and detail of the nebula
