Ori Impression: Cederblad 51

There are not many images here on Astrobin of this object, at least with a field radius between 1.3 and 2.0.

Cederblad 51 is a bluish glowing and relatively faint reflection nebula over Orion's head, about a third of the distance between Orion and Taurus.

Ced 51 is embedded in a larger Ha areal or Sharpless object with the number Sh2-264.

In the lower and darker part of the image there are also quite a few dark nebulae or LDN objects.

I decided to turn the Ha to a greyish brownish colour, also to make more of the structures of the lower dark nebula area visible, as this image still lacks the luminosity component.

Hope you enjoy this not quite everyday object, also because it is a bit noisy in the lower area due to the relatively low integration time for this object.

And by the way, after more than three months without really clear nights, this is my first winter object this season.

Thanks for stopping by & Clear skies

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.
