Description

I have here captured some of the rather striking nebulosity near The Spider (Sh2-234 aka IC427) and Fly (Sh2-237) nebulae in Auriga. Curiously the filametous nebulosity in the centre of the image, and  the big round nebulae in the lower left, appear to lack a designations (at least in the Sharpless and Lynds' catalogues).
