This one is known as the "Wizard Nebula". I guess it looks like a wizard...maybe I'm missing something? Found in the constellation Cepheus about 7000 light years from us. Again, I chose to process this image using the Hubble palette. I gathered photons over the course of 5 nights just about a year ago. It's hard to believe that last year I was almost constantly taking images from October till mid March. This year, nada. Either it clouds up in the evening or it's clear with a full moon. Really lousy weather for astrophotography, but great for doing things around the house.
