The Cygnus region (2)

 

 

Another shot of the constellation Cygnus.

I think the color of this picture represents the original color of the slide

better than in my previous Cygnus (1) shot.

One of my projects for this year will be a mosaik of the summer constellations

with short (70mm) focal lenght.
