NGC 7000 & Pelican Nebulae
The North America Nebulae, NGC 7000 and Pelican Nebulae.
This is my best Nebulae shot so far, I've used my 135mm Tamron lens
piggybacked on the LX 200 to capture this Object.
Piggyback photography was a very rewarding start for me into astrophotography,
one of this years targets is to reshoot NGC 7000 with longer focal lenght.
