Description

Waylaid  by cloudy skies this winter, I’m making up for lost time in capturing targets of the season. On the last of a string of clear nights, I shot IC63, aka the Ghosts of Cassiopeia. Given conditions and the subject, I decided that a black and white image in Ha would be appropriate.
