Description

From Wikipedia:
The Ghost Nebula (designated Sh2-136, VdB 141) is a reflection nebula located in the constellation Cepheus.
It lies near the cluster NGC7023. Looking at the image, the nebula's name is easily understood. The Ghost Nebula is referred to as a globule (catalogued CB230) and over 2 light-years across. There are several stars embedded, whose reflected light make the nebula appear a yellowish-brown colour.

I really struggled processing this one, seems pixinsight didn't like it,problems with wbpp to start and the post processing wasn't having it, this hasn't even been sharpened at all, in fact it made it look worse,  either that or its just me and my processing, so leaving this as is until a time comes when I go back and have another go.
