Description

The Ghost Nebula (designated Sh2-136, VdB 141) is a reflection nebula located in the constellation Cepheus.
It lies near the cluster NGC 7023. The Ghost Nebula is referred to as a globule (cataloged CB230) and over 2 light-years across.
There are several stars embedded, whose emissions make the nebula shine in brownish color. (wikipedia)

With one night available at my dark site Mt Pinos (elev 2530m) for this target,
I did my best to present this faint object with the integration time I have.
Shot in LRGB and processed in APP,  StarTools with denoise AI.

Thanks for looking.
