1.4

The picture of Northern Cygnus is extremely brilliant and breath taking. It was interesting to see what cameras can do. I did not know that if you were near this constellation in space you would still be unable to see it like this picture displays it and you would only be able to see the northern america nebula. The picture is a series of shots that capture the photons that emit the light. If you look at this image it is unbelievable when you see all of the stars in just this one picture of such a small place in space. It gives you a feel for how many stars there truly are just in the universe we know of alone.
