📸 A Beautiful Trifid
Red emission. Blue reflection. Dark dust. The Trifid Nebula (M20) in Sagittarius blends all three. Star formation shapes its glowing clouds, while dark lanes split the red core into three parts. A cosmic gem, 5,000 light-years away.📅 APOD – July 9, 2025

A couple of nights ago I let my #Dwarf3 stay out all night with a stellation mask, which bagged me about 8 hours worth of #Antares , #Messier4 , and other goodies, including the Antares #ReflectionNebula.
I ran it through the #DwarfLab #StellarStudio tools, and then did a bit more cleanup in #Snapseed and #GooglePhotos - about 15 minutes work.
I'm pretty darned pleased with the results.

vdB141 / Sh2-136: The Ghost Nebula
Spooky shapes in a large swathe of the Cepheus Flare molecular cloud about 1120ly distant. Towards the bottom is Sh2-136: The Ghost Nebula, a reflection nebula and Bok globule star-forming region.
SkyWatcher Quattro 8", RisingCam IMX571 OSC, 7hr with Neodymium filter.

The Iris Nebula
NGC7023 aka the Iris Nebula is a reflection nebula 1300 light-years away in Cepheus, about 6 light-years across.
It's particularly impressive caught in the middle of LDN1170, the large swathes of brown dust swirling around.

vdB14 and vdB15, Camelopardalis
A couple of new reflection nebulae I'd not encountered before.
Over the course of 3 nights I shot about 30 hours' data, from which I kept 20.9hr spanning both neodymium and dual-narrowband filters, stacked and blended to make this little beauty.Prints, etc: https://shiny.photo/photo/vdB14-and-vdB15--Camelopardalis-33299c81415f9e6dda8d6d4027ef13c4
