Here it is.  I am quite happy with this.  Maybe in the future I will try it as a mosaic. :D

The North America Nebula (NGC 7000 or Caldwell 20) is an emission nebula in the constellation Cygnus, close to Deneb (the tail of the swan and its brightest star). The remarkable shape of the nebula resembles that of the continent of North America, complete with a prominent Gulf of Mexico. It is sometimes incorrectly called the "North American Nebula".

I often look at this imaging section and am often tempted to comment but feel a little like an intruder as I have no imaging experience or any equipment to try it. This image is spectacular and felt I had to say so.
