Lovely image! :D And I love this nebula, because it is being ionized by one of my favorite stars, relatively nearby O9-type 10 Lacertae. This is surely one of the most beautiful picture I have seen of the Lacerta nebula! ❤️ Ann Thanks! :) It is a nice looking nebula and it is also very large. I got...

When looking into the often photographed Pencil Nebula on the left of the image it is easy to see ...

Images were taken with a remote system and filters are listed as Astrodon LRGB 2GEN 50mm square. I am not an expert on this matter but I assume it is a normal LRGB setup.

I have no idea how “official” those nebula names are. The only nebula that I was able to resolve from Sesame Name Resolver was Thumbprint Nebula. As already mentioned, the Chamaeleon III dark cloud is visible in the image and part of the Chamaeleon II dark cloud is visible at the top of the image. T...

Thanks, Ann! And thanks for nice comments, they got linked to the APOD text! With your tips on stars and some additional tips from Robert Nemiroff and other people, I was able to find more details and names for most of the dusty areas in the image. Use mouseover on the web version to see annotations...

Here is an image of a Dark Nebula Complex showing nice dark nebulosity. I have been unable to find a name for this area, the only known object in the image is a small galaxy IC 3104. This image is from Telescope Live telescopes in Heaven’s Mirror Observatory, Australia. Image is from three sets of ...
