LDN1074 LDN1075

Sedro-Woolley, Wa.

Celestial North is left and East is down.
I would probably need a scope with a larger objective to bring these dark nebulas to more prominance, considering that this section of the Milky Way is somewhat sparse.
The inage center is located at abour RA21hr 34min DEC54deg 19min in the constillation Cygnus.
LDN 1075 is the circular dark area about 1/3 of the way to the left edge from the bright star in the photo center.
LDN 1074 is the entire collection of darker areas from the center to the left, a little over a third of the entire image.
