The Shed Skin Nebula in Lacerta

This is some weak and very rarely imaged nebulosity in Lacerta. It has as far as I know no common name so I asked members of SGL to suggest a name. I decided that the winner was "The Shed Skin Nebula" suggested by Wim van Berlo, since it is located in Lacerta (The Lizard) and have some similarity to the overcoat a lizard leaves after shedding. And as shown by my piggybacking Samyang 135 wide-field image (https://www.astrobin.com/lt53h5/) there is a trail from the shed to the much more imaged Gecko in Lacerta (LBN 437).

It seems that the object is part of either LBN 420 or 425. Wim also dug up some exotic annotations of some of the structures:
The lump (shedded head skin) in the top left corner is [DB2002b] G93.46-12.63. The appendage above HD 209919 is PLCKECC G092.83-11.03.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
