Swan & hidden jewels
I hope to make you pleasure in showing some of the jewels hidden in Swan constellation.
Cocoon Nebula, a nebula placed in a very rich and colorful star field. A long trail made from a dark nebula dust make this object like a comet:

Sharpless 101 or Tulip Nebula, an emission nebula placed in a very busy place .. like a flower:

The Veil Nebula Complex or Cygnus Loop, taken with a modded Canon:

And final a single shot of the Swan with a 50mm and a Canon attached to the upper of the RC:

Thats all ...
All the best,
Leo

Fabulous images. My favourite is the 5D11 shot of the zenith milky way.

WOW! Splendid work Leo! These sure are attention grabbers. The stand out image for me is the Tulip Nebula. The beautiful star colours go so well against the complex emission and reflection nebulosity. The annotated version of the northern sky zenith is also impressive. Such a busy area insisting viewers take a closer look. The larger size version of this image was great to see. Thanks for sharing.

Amazing field Leo.
Right up ahead hey? What a treat. Sounds like the scorpius of the northern hemisphere. I had a go at it in Ha. It's just above my northern fence here.
