Supernova remnant G082.2 + 05.3 W63, a very faint object in the constellation of Cygnus. Its visual appearance appears to be limited to the OIII emission line, requiring a large amount of lights to be visible. The red nebulosity in the area is unrelated to this SNR as it lies at a different distance, giving it a characteristic tridimensional effect. Ha: 96 X 300s OIII: 196 X 300s
