Description

This image shows the Boogeyman Nebula on the lower right and the Casper Nebula on the upper left in one field of view center of Bernard Loop in the Orion.

The Boogeyman Nebula is a monster similar to a ghost or goblin of legend in the West. Its official name is LDN1622 and it consists of a dark nebula and some Ha (ionized hydrogen regions).

Casper Nebula is a little ghost that appeared in a cartoon movie titled The Friendly Ghost in the mid-20th century. It is called the Casper Nebula because it resembles Casper the Little Ghost. Officially named M78, this reflection nebula is attractive due to the contrast between the blue region and the surrounding red Ha region.

The difference in brightness from Bernard Loop is so great, and since LDN1622, M78, and Bernard Loop are all objects with different characteristics, it is necessary to process after applying a mask to the three objects separately when correcting, so it is bright but difficult to process.
