Description

This is what my piggybacking Samyang 135 caught while my RASAs caught this PN and SNR (see https://www.astrobin.com/t79g7q/). Maybe it makes SNR G179.0+2.6 (centrally in the image) even more mysterious looking. PN IPHASX J055226.2+323724 is the small red object inside the star cluster M37. Up to the left you can see parts of the Spaghetti Nebula. Oddly enough the two large red nubulae to the right are apparently not annotated in any of the major catalogues.

I added RASA data to the central part of the image.
