Description

Highly contrast image of Sailboat open cluster, NGC 225, surrounded by dark and clear clouds plus a background of veils of a kind of red wine colour.

Captured using ATEO-1, 16" Dream reflector, using Astrodon LRGB filters 52/16/16/16 minutes each.

Hard to emphasize all details on the same picture, so this is the first attempt trying to get all details out of the image.

In the large version of the image, to the left of the clusters is possible to see the faint veils like reddish sea waves for the sailboat to go.

The two main objects apart from the star cluster is the nebula vdB4 and the dark nebulae LDN 1302, LDN 1291, LDN 1300, LDN 1298 and Berk 3 (Stock 24) star cluster.
