About this image

One of those things I stumbled across and thought would make an interesting target. The Iris Nebula is an area of brownish dark dust in Cepheus - illuminated by a young blue star, SAO 19158. My exposures were acquired via Stellarmate into Kstars/Ekos. Stacked in AstroPixelProcessor, cropped and adjusted in Photoshop and Lightroom.
