Description

I was inspired to try this after seeing @Andy Brown’s cracking image of these weak molecular nebulae in Cepheus.  Been round a few times on it, darker versions, lighter versions, bigger stars, smaller stars etc and settled on these two versions.

LBN552 is considered the faintest object in the LBN catalog, so represents a bit of a challenge!
