NGC 7479 and associated IFN

NGC 7479 is a relatively tiny spiral galaxy in Pegasus (tiny for my refractor's 850 mm of focal length), but a buddy of mine (Ryan W) recommended it to me just because of all of the IFN associated with its surrounds.

NGC 7497 is located 60 million years from us and appears behind this interstellar dust nebula that is only a thousand light years away.

IFN is high galactic latitude nebulae that are illuminated from the integrated flux of all the stars in the Milky Way. These nebulae include dust particles, hydrogen and carbon monoxide and can be found in the direction of both the north and south celestial poles.

We headed out late August in the new moon phase to try to capture the IFN associated with this pretty galaxy.

Thanks for looking, this is my first try at catching IFN.

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.
