Description

NCG7023 - Iris Nebula

A bright reflection nebula in the constellation of Cepheus, lit by a magnitude 7 star, it is around 6 light years across and 1300 light years away, so in astronomy terms just round the corner.

I have processed the the best that I can, but I could do with more sub-frames to get the best out of the dust channels. One to come back to at a later date I think.
