Description

The Iris Nebula (NGC 7023) is embedded in surrounding fields of interstellar dust in the constellation Cepheus.

This is an unguided image using an iOptron IEQ-45_Pro mount. If you look closely, the stars are not perfectly round, due to tracking error. Nevertheless the image gives you a good idea of the setting of this nebula within the crowded starfield of the Milky Way Galaxy.
