Pelican (IC 5070) and North America (NGC 7000) in Hydrogen-Alpha

The Pelican Nebula, with a bit of the North America at lower left. An almost comically unproductive evening, with long-since-debugged software setups cordially refusing to do anything at all. Nevertheless, I did manage seven two-minute exposures in hydrogen-alpha over the course of four hours (!!!), and here's a quick stack of the result.
