Description

The first time I have taken a photo from a dark nebula: the "Ghost Nebula" looks like a ghost and is part of the molecular cloud LDN 1177 in Cepheus. I have done this photo during 3 nights around the 24. august 2023 from my backyard with mit TS 115 f7 (0,79red), ASI2600MC-P and my EQ6-R.
