Description

This turned out to be a slightly odd composition and framing. Not my finest. I had hoped for more spectacular dark nebulosity in the center of the image. This is a two panel RASA image with some particularly uninteresting sky cropped away at the top (sorry all of you living in those worlds). I also added a bit of old refractor data I had on IC63 (The Ghost in Cassiopeia) and Sh2-187 to sharpen them a bit. It may be worth pointing out that Sh2-187 appears to be part of a rather interestingly looking ring like structure of dark nebulosity seen to the right of the image.
