Dark Nebulae in Cygnus

We had a good run of clear night skies through May and I was out as often as I could be with the 800mm f/4 Newtonian and the ZWO ASI1600MM-Pro mono with 3nm filters. I spent several nights capturing data around Cygnus, including this one, LDN 935,the gulf of Mexico region of NGC 7000, the North Amaerica Nebula in Ha. And over the following two nights I focused on a beautiful string of dark nebulae just below NGC 7000. The top of this one is Dobashi 2961, with another ten or so Dobashi objects trailing after. I have never captured this dark nebula before, but glad I stopped to check it out–I was just browsing around the DSS sky survey data, stopping on interesting structures around Cygnus. And then spent a couple nights on it.
