Sadr region (y Cyg nebula and lots of DWBs, LBNs, LDNs and Barnard's Dark nebulae)

Pointing a telescope towards Cygnus will always give you something interesting so I thought of choosing a random bright patch close to Sadr to see what I get. 

I started shooting this region in HaRGB with a colour camera but I soon replaced it with a mono and went back to it for some Oiii, Sii and a bit more Ha.
