Description

This is a separate processing of the first night of data I collected for the "Dusty Cepheus" mosaic: https://astrob.in/5n797r/B/. It includes the Dark Shark Nebula (LDN 1235), Rotten Fish Nebula (LDN 1251), and the Wolf's Cave Nebula (LDN 1217).
I have a new respect for these LDNs - they are extremely faint! But I'm looking forward to revisiting them with my telescope (at a longer focal length). That's going to require a LOT more exposure time .
