The brighter section of the North America nebula, which I guess represents California and Mexico, is known as the Cygnus Wall and it's something I want to image with my own scopes which have more focal length and a narrower field of view.

The North America and Pelican Nebulae in Cygnus
This is another pair of widefield targets that I can't achieve in a single image with my own telescopes. The so-called North America Nebula on the left of this image has an uncanny resemblance to North America and the Gulf of Mexico in particular, but I do find the smaller Pelican Nebula on the right much harder to resolve.
