Sharpless 2-64, emission nebula in Serpens450 viewsAn emission nebula in Serpens about 1000 light years distant. Dim and difficult to image. Sometimes called the Smoking Embers nebula.
NGC7023_20240706_RASA11_NBZ2.JPG
NGC 7023, the Iris Nebula440 viewsReflection nebula in Cepheus. Actually the nebula is LBN 487, and NGC 7023 is a star cluster within the nebula. 1300 light-years away and 6 across.
Sharpless2-27_20240705_NBZ_v2.JPG
Sharpless2-27 - The Zeta Ophiuchi Nebula505 viewsLarge but very faint emission nebula centered on the star Zeta Ophiuchi. Difficult to image because of the brightness of the star relative to the faintness of the nebula..
Sh2-275-20231206-NBZ1.JPG
Sharpless2-275 - The Rosette Nebula446 viewsHII region in the constellation Monoceros; distance 5,200 light-years from Earth. Open cluster NGC2244, in the doughnut hole, provides the energy that makes the nebula glow.

NGC 7000, North American Nebula, Cygnus Wall376 viewsThe Cygnus Wall is a section of the North American Nebula, but it doesn't resemble the Florida-like structure usually seen with NGC7000 because the filter used for this photo gives a different view than regular broadband shots.
