Description

This image contains the well-known Heart & Soul Nebula (IC 1805 and IC 1848) on the right side, as well as some less-imaged objects on the left. At the far left are vdB 14 and 15 (reflection nebulae), and Sh2-202, a faint emission nebula.

There are some great combined images of vdB 14, 15, and Sh2-202 on Astrobin, and I'd like to return to that region one day and try it out. It really needs a scope with a focal length in the 300 - 500mm range to get some good detail.
