Description

Seeing this image for the first time my wife immediately said the ghosts of Cassiopeia look like happy and colorful dementors from the Harry Potter universe. And I think she's right :-)

Processing this image drove me mad since I wasn't able to reduce the stars in a way that the nebulae were able to shine. Gamma Cas didn't make things any easier. So comments and CC welcome!
