Double Star Albireo Beta Cygni

The Double Star Albireo (Beta Cyg) as observed with refractor TLAPO 80/480 f/6 and reflector TAL200K f/8.5. Both stars are separated by 35 arc seconds and both telescopes show the double star nicely. The brightest star is colored yellow, the B-component itself has a blue color. This combination is one of the best to see the difference in color and a perfect view during a starparty.

All pictures are taken with Nikon D7500 and are single shots. Limited editing using CS4.
