Description

For some reason there are very few images of these rather striking dust structures not far from Polaris. I get the impression that the dust is lit up by some of the brighter stars in the image and it is therefore probably not Integrated Flux Nebulosity (which is lit up by the collective radiation of our galaxy)

No filter used.

Sadly this was the last capture for the season for me since I have now lost astrodarkness up here (60° N) for a few months.
