Very happy with this one, Cygnus, the core of the Milky Way, full of dust, star clusters and emission nebulae.

Pretty busy in there, but I love the fact that there's a gap right through the middle!

Amazing amount of stars isn't there. Yep the middle provides a nice contrast with the nebulosity too.
