Tulip SH2-101 it's right near Eta Cygni, (that is the bright star in this image) Just south from NGC6888 the crescent nebula,


I could spend all summer imaging this region...if it was not cloudy every day ..

Nice shot John. What's amazing about your images is the location your imaging from. To get such great shots with so much light pollution is remarkable.

thanks Herb, some night you need to take a drive down and really see what I contend with...you think it's bad...you can't imagine...4 glare bombs in all directions , local gas station and convience store lighting like they are a prison and then there is the ultra glow from Lowell and Boston.
I can barely pick out the milkyway at zenith on the best night ever with my naked eye... (that happen twice since I have lived here 5yrs now...)
I wonder what it would take to build a robotic obs at YFOS for the NHAS imagers
???
