Description

Discovered in 1855, this reflection nebula is a very active area of star formation in the constellation of Perseus around 1000 light years away. Some of the brightest areas of nebulosity are known as 'Harbig-Haro' objects which are associated with newborn stars.

I collected data for this a few months ago but had a few failed attempts at processing.  Much happier with this version.
