Description

This object is not really what I intended on imaging.  When I went outside I planned on imaging NGC 7510 the Lobster Claw Nebula.   I've seen several people image  NGC 7510  on Astrobin lately and the object appeared to be relatively bright.   However after trying several camera settings and taking 5 or 6 test images I could see no nebulosity in my field of view. 
I know I was on the object because there is a unique little star cluster right next to the Lobster Claw and I could clearly see it.   I could have imaged blind and maybe brought out the nebulosity with stretching during post processing.  However I chose not to do this.  Instead I decided to image NGC 7635 the Bubble Nebula.  The Bubble Nebula is right next to the Lobster Claw Nebula and  I can always see the Bubble Nebula in my field of view.
