Please view in shadowbox.

This is a super wide field view of the sky peering into the constellation Cygnus.  The bright blue star in the upper left is Deneb and the bright orange star in the lower left is Sadr. 

There is a ton of emission nebula in this area of the sky set directly against the thick starfield and dust lanes of the Milky Way. 

C&C Welcome.

Stunning when viewed in shadowbox Chris!  The detail is just mind blowing.

Now I'd like to see a shot of the Juno Mission orbiting Saturn!  :wink:
