Description

The region around the bright star Sadr (Gamma Cygni) in the constellation of Cygnus is one that is rich in nebulosity. Although the red hydrogen emissions are most prominent, a closer look shows gentle variations in the colour of the nebulosity. The blue reflection nebula, NGC 6914, can also be seen on the right of the image.
