Revision title: LRGB - L from StarFire EDF and Moravian C5, OSC from Stowaway and ASI2600MC

Nice extended van den Bergh object in Cygnus around 44 Cyg. There's another bluer - reflection nebula? - around 42 Cyg but I couldn't find it identified by querying objects around the star in Simbad. Sh2-106 towards the top right is very bright and has some structure.
For a beautiful picture of this field see Thomas Davis' and for an incredibly detailed picture of Sh2-106 see here from Hubble.
Taken in July during nautical night. There were a couple of nights of good transparency after heavy downpours but that same poor weather prevented capturing more data before the full Moon. Plenty of leftovers from satellite trails (thank you Elon) as not enough data to have them all vanish.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
