Description

IC1396 is an open cluster associated to an emission nebula in Cepheus. Inside this beautiful nebula,  the famous Elephant's trunk IC1396A.
On the right side of this image, in front of the Elephant's trunk, there is the possible Blue planetary nebula Cr1, or PNG 100.3+02.8.
The amount of integration time allowed me to get many colors shades in this SHO rendition of the great IC1396, which i never did before in a wide field version.
Hope you like it and CS to all!
